Ripped Numerals - Metal Die

Create Bold, Distressed Number Designs

The Ripped Numerals Metal Die from Bee Arty's Measured Moments Collection brings edgy, textured elements to your papercrafting with a distinctive torn-edge aesthetic. Designed by Karen Louwen, this versatile die set features two striking elements: a vertical ruler strip with numbers "0123456789" and measurement markings along one edge, plus a torn notebook-style strip with rough, ripped edges—both perfect for adding an urban, industrial feel to your handmade projects.

Why Ripped Numerals?

The ruler die combines all ten digits (0-9) arranged vertically alongside precise measurement tick marks, with dramatically torn, distressed edges that create an authentic ripped-paper effect. The companion torn notebook strip features the same weathered, ripped aesthetic on both edges, mimicking the look of paper torn from a spiral notebook. Together, they're perfect for documenting dates, ages, measurements, and milestones with a contemporary, maker-inspired edge.

Two Versatile Design Elements

The ruler numeral die is ideal for creating custom date tags, milestone cards, countdown designs, or adding measurement details to your layouts. The torn notebook strip works beautifully as a journalling spot, creating textured borders, or layering behind sentiments and focal images. Both pieces feature the same distressed aesthetic that coordinates seamlessly with the rest of the Measured Moments Collection.

Creative Applications

Cut these dies from cardstock to create bold, graphic elements, or use patterned paper for added visual interest. Try cutting them from kraft cardstock and inking the edges for an industrial, workshop-inspired look. Layer them over contrasting colours to make the ripped edges pop, or use them as masks for ink blending. They're perfect for birthday cards, anniversary projects, growth charts, recipe cards, travel journals, or any project where you want to celebrate numbers and measurements with style.

Premium Metal Dies

Crafted from high-quality metal, these dies deliver clean, precise cuts every time and are compatible with most leading die-cutting machines. The durable construction ensures they'll be a go-to tool in your crafting arsenal for years to come.
