How To Cut Out a Sentiment with Make The Cut

Shelly Schmidt

 I used the Fancy Frames SVG File by Paper Cutz for my card.

I used the bottom of the three outlines for the base of my card. I copied it, pasted it onto itself and then slid the top copy over to the side- overlapping them slightly and welded the shape together- so I have a shaped card. I used digital designer paper from the Modern Flowers series for the second layer and a sentiment from the Modern Flowers digi set for the final layer.

I wanted to show you how I created the layer with the sentiment using the Make the Cut. I took a scrap piece of cardstock and cut out the sentiment panel.

 I have my sentiment printed out on cardstock- so I trim that to fit under the piece of paper on my mat with the cut out- do not remove it from your mat- simply lift it up from the top and slide the sentiment panel underneath it.

Now I slide my sentiment under the cut out so it is right where I want it to cut out. 

Next, just lift off your template, press down on your sentiment panel to make sure it is secure on the mat and hit cut.
