Love of Life With Spellbinders

You say you do not have a Spellbinder die the right size for your sentiment? Of course you do, you just have to cut your paper to the size you want.

I like the deckle rectangles, but I have found that they do not always come in the width or length I wish for. No problem..........I use one die to cut to the desired dimensions I want.

First I cut the white card stock with the closest size I need.


You can emboss at this time if that is the desired effect you want.




Then I off set the die to the width I desire and cut again, if you embossed the first time then you will have to turn the cut one over and emboss again on that one edge.

I found the the length of die was not what I wanted either and as before I off set the die and cut the length a bit shorter. Keep in mind the length and the width reduction can be done in one step.


Using the same die, I cut my backing layer and as before I "off set" the die and cut it a little more narrow and shorter.

As you see it has taken one die and a little temporary stick, double sided tape to hold your paper in place

to provide me with just the right size for my sentiment. When nothing will do than you have to make it work.
