Good afternoon! I'm making 110 Christmas cards. One part of my card is a cursive word "Christmas". ALWAYS rips as I pull it off. Your idea of the parchment paper is SO PERFECT! It truly works! And guess what? This die is cut on white card stock-and the parchment is also white- so I can use the PARCHMENT one on the next card. Two for one!! You can't tell! thank you, thank you!

Fab video, apart from parchment paper to release dies can also use the plastic packaging inside your breakfast box, similar material to parchment/greaseproof. Can also place another piece of card stock (shim) over parts that are not cut run thru machine again..saves buying metal plate! Or simply spritz card stock with little water before putting die/card stock thru machine..clean cut!
@chaosinthecraftroom Жыл бұрын

Hello have you tried die cutting just baking/parchment paper with no other paper? As it could also be an issue with the die itself. When it goes through the machine does it feel like the right pressure is being applied and does it cut part of the paper and just not in 1 section?

About the first case, when paper gets stuck on the die: I have seen lots of videos, over the years, recommending wax paper for this. I had never heard about parchment paper... I have to try. As in my country we can not find wax paper, I had to come out with something different. And I have never seen anyone mentioning my method! I use detangler hair spray. It loses the paper quite well. I spray the die, remove the excess (maybe cut a die cut to waste) and it will work for several cuts
