HOW TO USE KUT OUTS DIES WITH COORDINATING PEACHY KEEN STAMPS

Step 1:  Stamp and color coordinating Peachy Keen stamps on card stock.

Step 2:  Cut a piece of card stock 3-1/2" x 5" for a template.  Center the die on card stock and cut with die cutting machine.  With the Sizzix Big Shot, use the platform with all folders closed, clear plate, card stock, die cutting side down and other clear plate.

Step 3:  Lay the template over the stamped image and position so that there is an equal border all the way around stamped image.

Step 4:  Color in the little circles on template with pen or pencil.  Set template aside (keep for future use).

Step 5:  Place stamped image on cutting platform and clear plate of Big Shot.  Place Kut Outs die over top of image (cutting side down).  Align the marked circles on the card stock with the register holes on the die.  Carefully place the clear plate of die cutter on top and run through Big Shot.

Finished piece will have a perfect border all the way around!

    Awesome tutorial on how to use the dies. I REALLY love the way that works. Your gift box house is precious, and I sure hope I'm gonna see a tutorial on that pop up tag. It's AWESOME!! Your water coloring looks fantastic, BTW, and once again, I leave here completely inspired!!

    Hi Kim, How are you? You asked do I dread cutting stuff out? Oh yea! I take so much time coloring an image that if I want to go for the fuzzy cut sometimes I have to stop working and leave it for later. I'm so glad that PKS has these Kut Outs now- I'm definitely getting some and I hope they have many more. I really like your step-by-step on the "Kutting Out" after stamping because I'm so not good at eyeballing to stamp the other way around. Thank you so much for sharing.
