Astuces de l'émission

• Watercolour card is denser than standard cardstock, so you may need to run it through your die-cutting machine more than once to achieve a clean cut.
• Keep the waste pieces from die-cutting—they can be used as stencils or layered elements in future projects.
• You don't need to colour every element; sometimes leaving areas white or using just black ink creates a more striking, professional finish.
