TRY THIS TECHNIQUE

It’s Monday and I’m coming from a weekend full of stamping!  So, let’s start off with this card that uses a really fun technique!

Those flowers from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set(155070) were cut with the “partial die-cutting” Technique.  It’s pretty easy to do and delivers a stunning result.

I started by stamping and heat embossing the flowers on the 3-3/4″ x 4-1/4″ panel.  The the die was place over top and then layering the cutting plate just part-way over the blooms.  Once, it was cut. then I slipped the square die from the Stylish Shapes dies under the cut part and, Presto, a beautifully framed group of flowers!

You can see this technique being used in this video.

And, here are the products that I used.
