Tips from the show

• All three pieces of cardstock must be exactly the same size for the stamped images to align perfectly when layered.
• You can create multiple different card designs from the three stamped pieces by rearranging the cut sections in various combinations.
• If you don't have heat embossing equipment, you can stamp all three pieces with black ink and simply layer them without embossing.
