Another little project I created using the Home Decor Solutions cartridge:
All the die-cutting on the tin (dragonfly, "simplify", flourish, scalloped circle) are from the Home Decor Solutions cartridge. Gotta love that kind of versatility, right? I cut the dragonfly twice: once plain and the second time as a shadow image, and I layered them and attached them to my tin with foam adhesive.
In order to cut the flourish from vellum, I experimented with the pressure setting. It cuts beautifully (depending on the intricacy of the design) on medium pressure with the multi-cut setting. I also found that it works best if you are using an older cutting mat; i.e., one that is not brand-new super-sticky. If the mat is too sticky, the vellum won't release without tearing or curling.
Supplies: Patterned Paper: Bo Bunny, Cardstock: Bazzill Basics; Vellum: The Paper Company; Die-cut cartridge: Provo Craft
