Video: Lighthouse Looking Glass Dies with Alignment Tool

Hi friends! I'm here today with a video showing you how to use our new Looking Glass Dies with one of the nifty Alignment Tool Stencils . This tool lets you perfectly align every Looking Glass Die set for your cards and is available in two sizes: A2/A6 and slimline . These dies create dimensional, layered scenes that are just so stunning, and for my project today with the Lighthouse dies, I added a light up element, so light shines out of the lighthouse when you press the sentiment, which is from the Color Layering Abalone set.

Here's my card (with the light off) - and the video is below!

Watch here or on our YouTube channel .

Have a fantastic rest of your week & happy stamping! PS - the lights are the EZ Lights from our friends at Pear Blossom Press . To see more Hero Arts + Pear Blossom Press Magic, see tons of inspiration here from our collaboration blog hop !

How wonderful. I’ve yet to try my lights on cards but feel you gave me the courage to do so. I loved your card and being from New England we have many lighthouses up here. Thank you for your inspiration.
