Simple Aperture Die Cutting Hack

[@fionascott4887]

Lovely card Christine I think your mystery bag has been a bargain!

[@Chrissieannie]

I had 4 mystery bags!!!!!!!!!!! One just wasn't enough, it's nice to have surprises! 😀😀😀

[@pauladyer9845]

Great way to cut only to a line..thanks

[@Chrissieannie]

You're welcome!

[@DonnaHoye]

Oh my gosh, my imagination is in overload right now. How about red glitter paper and a “Congratulation, paint the town red. Thanks for getting my card brain working again.

[@Chrissieannie]

Great idea!!😊

[@patmoore365]

This has a very clean look with the black and silver and your idea of cutting around the buildings and cutting the rectangular aperture looks fabulous Chrissie, and the added silver glitter card makes a wonderful background. x

[@Chrissieannie]

Many thanks Pat😊😊😊

[@letaclarke9853]

Wow…how clever is that Chris. ..so effective and glad you got the cardstock sorted with the embossing powder..❤️

I never knew that paper could shrink! That is so interesting. Glad it worked out on the thicker cardstock. You do have the most interesting dies in your stash Chrissie! I love how you took this stamp and die set and made it work like the other die. A very beautiful card, I love the simplicity of it! Enjoy your luncheon out with your friends! Hugs, Brenda

[@kcinca5410]

This is a card after my own heart. I love sparkle and contrast and this card is quite stunning. It reminds me of a holiday card I made one year using a long decorative strip skyline die. I used the positive on the front and the negative inside above the sentiment. I am envying you with those Gummiapan mystery boxes! Silly of me, really.

[@Chrissieannie]

They ship worldwide !😁😁😁😁😁

Thank you for your diligence Peggy thank you !😊😊😊

[@XenobiaF]

What a lovely card! I wonder how difficult it would be to cut the skyline first and match the stamp to it. Probably very, but it has me thinking at least.

[@Chrissieannie]

It can be done both ways, it’s just a matter of personal preference !😊😊😊

[@XenobiaF]

@@Chrissieannie I was thinking it would be difficult to line up if you stamped with a clear embossing ink.

[@Chrissieannie]

@@XenobiaF there are lots of tricks to ensure accurate stamping, but I usually go for the easiest method!

[@ajhudson2669]

Lovely effect, thanks for tip on card weight and heat embossing, could I ask where your retractable craft knife is from please? TIA 🤗🥰

[@Chrissieannie]

It's Tim Holtz by Tonic Studios

[@jenniferdrake1210]

Love the card Christine. I did have a thought when you were holding the building die, is it possible that due to its shape which could be flimsy, was the die was the problem. Sorry about that, I have to think things out as to why, just my funny old brain 😊. Jenny ❤

[@Chrissieannie]

As long as I managed to get it to work I’m not worried, I was concerned the first time I tried it though !

[@felicitycrowe6971]

Maybe if you die cut first, then lined up the stamp???

[@Chrissieannie]

That is usually a little more tricky but it could be done that way certainly.😊
