Takes some practice & patience, which are very hard for me. I am always in a hurry! Lol<br />I like to use Ken Oliver's "Stick It" with my intricate dies. It is an adhesive sheet made specifically for die cutting. I place it on my cardstock before I die cut, then peel off the other backing piece to apply it. Works like a charm!KVencelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18403648824315030968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-73678324851137002782015-12-09T20:35:12.705+00:002015-12-09T20:35:12.705+00:00lol!
