Design & Aesthetic
As the name suggests, this die cuts a snowflake background pattern. It is part of the Mistletoe Magic collection, so it is designed to coordinate with the range's papers, stamps and dies.
Why Choose This Die
A background die gives you instant pattern and detail with one cut. At 12.4cm x 17.4cm, it is a good size for a card panel, and cutting it from pearl or patterned paper creates a decorative layer. You can also use it as a mask or overlay for a layered, wintery look.
How to Use
Place the die on your paper or cardstock, add a cutting plate, and run it through your die-cutting machine following its cutting sandwich guide. Check that your machine's plate size is wide enough for a die of this size. Lift out the panel and mount it on a card base, or layer it over a coloured or foiled mat to let the pattern show.
