I think this would help some of you when matching stamped images with Spellbinders die templates for a perfect cut...
With a scrap piece of paper, I cut out the shape (in my case, S4-112 Classic Ovals SM) that I would use with the image. Take the negative piece and match up to the image. Then slide the die template in place until it "locks in." Using repositionable tape, I cut/emboss using my Spellbinders Grand Calibur®.
Using the Spellbinders Edgeabilities® E8-008 Classic Edges Two and E8-004 Classic Ric Rac taped together, I cut/emboss with my favorite patterned paper. I assembled all the pieces to the card front and add foam tape to the embossed sentiment for dimension. Placed pearls on the top and bottom of Labels Ten die cut to finish the card.
Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful card, I need to make one also for the other girl scout troop leader, she just lost her father, and I think these colors would work great for her card as well. Love Penny
