Instructions:

1. Stamp the arched, book with florals image from the November Stamp & Cut set in Intensified Black Ink onto white cardstock.
2. Use a heat tool to thoroughly dry the ink and then color the image in with alcohol markers.
3. Die cut the image out with the coordinating die.
4. Trim down some white cardstock to create a strip measuring 3" x 6".
5. With the strip vertical, place the coordinating die that you used to die cut your image out at the bottom left corner. Hold the die in place and trace around it with a pencil.
6. Remove the die and flip it 180 degrees and place it at the upper left corner of the strip of cardstock. Hold the die in place and then trace around it.
7. With a ruler draw two lines connecting the two traced die cuts, with about an inch between the lines.
