Tips from the show

• The die works with A5 machines and can be adapted for A4 machines by rotating the plates.
• You can choose to have the 'to and from' text on the inside or outside of the card by flipping the paper before folding.
• The uncoated cardstock means you can add inky techniques, watercolour, or other embellishments to personalise each card.
