Tutorial: Creating A Frame using Two Different Dies


Hi Friends and Craft lovers. This is Shalini and I am here today with Tutorial of my new creation – Photo Frame with Dual Dye cut.
The frame where photos are pasted is made up of a unique method of using TWO dies together which would create a unique shape on paper where your pics can be pasted. Let me explain in detail.

Supplies needed
Two Dies ( here i had used spellbinder dies)
Cardstock

Step 1
On the “Multipurpose Platform” of “Big Shot”, place an outer dye depending on what shape you would like to give to your photo on the frame. Inside this dye, place a oval dye in such a fashion that the centre of both the dyes are almost same. This would need a bit of practice but soon you would be able to do it perfectly. 



 Step 2
Place the paper to be cut on top of these dies.

 Step 3
Place the acrylic plate on top of the paper and pass it through the “Big Shot” machine.

 Step 4
The paper would come out with Die cut marks.

 Step 5
Place the “Enlarged Embossing Pads” on the paper now in TAB 1 and pass it again through the “Big Shot”. This will create the embossing mark of the die on the paper.

 Step 6
Remove the cut parts of the paper and you would get a lovely frame with inner oval where you can place your pics (or can write some message).

 Step 7
Make more such frames using different shapes of outer and inner dies.




Step 8
Paste these cut frames on a rectangular paper which has already been beautified with pattern paper and, beads and ribbons.
You can make many such rectangular frames with different shapes made in Step 7 above and connect them with a nice paper flower or with something else like a ribbon or lace. Here I have created a two step frame connected with a flower.
Finish the frame with some metallic / antique trinkets and ribbons.



I hope this tutorial would help you all
