Newbie: Rectangular die advice please

Postby courtneygardner » Sun Nov 20, 2011 1:57 pm

Hi all. I regularly make A6 size cards. I want a set of rectangular dies that I can use with my cuttlebug to cut photos to fit on the front of these cards and to emboss the card around the photo. I'm having a hard time finding appropriate dies - but I suspect this is due to my lack of knowledge about these things. I'd be most grateful for any advice you more experienced crafters can offer. Thanks! Courtney

Hi Courtney

Have you tried Nestabilities? They should work with a Cuttlebug.

They come in large (check the sizes to see if these are right for you.):

And small:

You can also buy corresponding scalloped rectangles to make pretty frames (these are large scalloped rectangles:

Hope this helps! They're pretty addictive and a lot of cardmakers find them indispensable...

Thanks

Thanks so much for your help! They do what I want but the sizes aren't ideal. I guess I'll make it work anyway. Thanks again!
