Die-Cutting or Stamping? Which comes first?

 

Die-Cutting or Stamping? Which one comes first if you have a Stamp & Die-Cut set you want to use? How often did you ask yourself this questions. While I was working on my Christmas Cards for my classes this year I thought of this question I get asked a lot. Well this is a little run down of everything involved.

I will show you in a few steps how your die-cutting machine works and a few little tips on how to adjust if things don’t come out as planed. I will also show you two ways to do it including a quick and easy way to die-cut and stamp a whole lot of images at ones.

Enjoy watching and please let me know in the comments below what you think and which method you prefer. 

The stamp set I used in the video is still available including the die-cuts and if you are in look out for a great nativity set this is it:

Close To My Heart - Seasonal Book October - December coming to an End

 


It is hard to believe that the calendar already points to December. There are only a few weeks left to enjoy the gorgeous papers, workshops and stamp sets from this book. This been said, this Seasonal Book was so popular that our entire paper collections from Freshly Baked and Christmas Story to Cherish are completely Sold Out. Yes, you heard right, every single paper pack with or without the sticker sheet is gone.

You still can get the cardstock bundles, the picture my life cards, some of the stamps and dies and even a few workshop kits are left. If you planed on getting any of these papers, grab the “Freshly Baked” or “Christmas Story” Scrapbooking workshop kit while you can. 

I know it is always a bummer when things go so fast, but thats the reason why I always stress to make yourself a list of things you for sure want to have. Get those items first when you can and check out my catalog walkthrough videos to see my predictions on what might sell out before the book ends.

The good thing is, you know Close To My Heart is working hard to make the next seasonal book as special as the last one. New papers, new workshop ideas and stamps are coming. And then there is the Annual Core Book which has a ton of gorgeous paper collections in it that are still available until Aug 2023. So if you miss out on the current book, check out the Christmas/ Winter paper pack from the Four-Season set.

You can find all products that are still available right here: https://claudiahenderson.closetomyheart.com/Retail/Products.aspx?CatalogID=271
