Masculine Birthday


I have a quick card that I made with one of my latest fave dies--Memory Box Piestra Tile.  I was playing around with the die, and discovered that Framed Out fits perfectly with this die.


First I drew a line along the front panel to mark where I wanted the bottom edge of the die to cut.  I ran the die through two times, just cutting the sections I wanted cut, and leaving the middle empty for the stamped image.  So, each time, the die was partially on the paper, and partially hanging off the edge.  Make sense?


Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps:  Framed Out
Paper:  Soft Stone, Enchanted Evening, Simply Chartreuse
Other:  Memory Box Piestra Tile Die


Thanks for Visiting
