You'll need a Big Shot Die Cutting Machine for this technique, but it is super simple! One service I provide to my customers – if you purchase a Big Shot from me, I invite you to a free private class where we'll make several projects using this fabulous tool and I'll share tips and tricks that will enhance the value of your investment.

Enjoy your project and next Tuesday I'll be sharing a project using colored Paper Trim Flowers.  Set a reminder so you don't miss it!
