Postage die two ways

Hello everyone – today I will show you card for using the Postage die two ways.

I like finding new ways to use my product and to I show 2 ways to use a popular die. The first is the way the die was designed. The second is a fun twist on the layout.

Today’s Project

Most of the dies come with stencils you can use to decorate the different sections. But you can also think outside the box for some other ideas.

I used the first idea and one of the stencils I purchased when I got the die. The die had suggestions colors – pink, brown, and green – etched on them so I used those ideas.

To show another way to use it, I found a stamp set with small images I could use and then cut the die apart and layered them in a fun way.
