Sizzix Die Cut Business Cards DIY !!!

hates me from hanging out com in this video I'm gonna talk to you about how to
align your artwork on this physics rectangles die
it has four rectangles the only still ruled I Sizzix Die Cut Business Cards DIY !!! that I found that comes close to a business card size
three and three eighths inch wide instead of three and a half inches wide
like a regular business card
showed you how to cut it with the dedicated hunch that I kind of
a day and this 1 I'm gonna show you how to use this rectangles die
the thing I like about this is that it really does punch out in a size
that is so close to a business card units almost exactly a business card
cheap photo printing online size
and you know the things I don't like about it is that for one thing is for
different rectangles on it which makes it hard to align
and wonderful if I could align it spread through
and cut it perfectly however this is not a business card
this is not even close to business card size
miss rectangles number two don't waste your money on that
and this one is closed rectangle size but its
not centered it's not clear has got four other rectangles on it so it's a little
bit challenging
to align it and get a nice straight cut after making many templates
to try to align it perfectly I'm gonna show you how I figured out
to cut this with pre accurate results
I like to use this and cut it down to it helped by

its fairly affordable they're sick sheets for ten dollars in saying I get a
lot of pride center that
that you want to make sure that you is a practice she's
first until you're perfectly comfortable with how
it along I'm using gorgeous scrapbook paper
tonight for dollars she years ago and it's a good way to use up your stash
paper that and it is very labor intensive
but if you're in a field where that effort will be appreciated
and I'm gonna show you how to do it Planet Granite Hills laid out my artwork
to fit into business card size I crafted to exactly
too i three
half inches and then I opened up a new name for sharp I'll
can't laid out sometimes I use the
guy layout and underlined and then I over there with the pencil tool
in Photoshop so that these would print out because these are gonna be my cuddle
and
and I wanted more precision than just those little X's
sell it then I'll eat them out six to a page which is a little bit wastepaper
you can fit eight on here then you're not going to get
by
to line up aren't here so this is what I figured out
was that this is actually a quarter inch from sight here and have been hatched
from site here
and so what I did was made up some templates a

you could make your template the exact shaper this
but I found it easier to cut things into three by foreign there be less waste
and it's exactly centered this rectangle
is exactly centered in this
for space so that's why I do it this way
there may be a better way to do it I'm just showing you how I did it
okay if you have a better way please tell us in the comments
if you have some cardstock a lot and you wanna it a rubber stamp or put this
think cardstock break through your printer and your printer will print onto
that
then that's fine and if you have a willing to printer even better
I'm using a inkjet printer and for that reason
I'm only doing I actually like to look at just black
on kraft paper if you're going to try to print in color
on your inkjet printer at home unless you have like seven really high and
printer
I don't think you can be happy with the results you can do this
and bring us over to Staples and for a dollar a page
they will print this out on I'll color laser printer
however then you're paying a dollar for six business cards and
class whatever else your gonna yes so
I wanna say this isn't economical way to do it economical way to do is order
business cards
however I like to change my card slot and I like to
modify my car to the setting
I'm
the mountains then when aidid was I found some heavy cardstock
and hey cut cut this beautiful paper into
3 by four inch pieces and you can it here this downing
several ways I hear keys just
with a glow stick you who glow stick take clip that down
and it used I don't know if this was necessary
racist breyer which is used for screen printing are you getting at Michaels are
in crash on
and I rolled down my cat isn't
spray mount were is called %uh spray mount for
spray adhesive crafted he said and
this is repositionable and it worked fine but if you can find one that's not
repositionable
I assume you're a veteran the Xyron machine just just stick your papers
through the air in it comes out as big sticker and
you can do that if you want you can even do the printed
piece just onto placer cardstock and then cut it out
and good that's the backside now you're probably thinking well how do I know it
can be perfectly aligned
I was thinking the same thing and really it doesn't matter because you're not
cutting to the edge
the only thing that matters is how this site cuts
this side there's a whole lot of wiggle room because you're not coming to the
edge
you got wiggle room on all sides the only thing that matters is how the front
is aligned
how much you got stripes or something structure going to be a problem
okay so now I'm gonna get this out and let's give it a test
I love this Fiskars
even get this at Walmart for only about ten dollars and the thing I love about
this is it has a liar here
so you can see with exact precision where it's gonna cut what I'm using
is just a file folder it's gotta be pretty happy
Park and so you may ask well why not just get these all out separately
because I don't feel like a get perfect alignment if I was going to stick this
down
cut these into business card size and stick them all together
I don't think I'm gonna get perfectly sharp
each so I wanted have it all sample
and they can cut it out because I'm then you can have perfect cut
and that's the reason why I am am
using this instead of it doesn't get too thick you could cut it with paper cutter
you could care whether craft punch he had perfect signs
UK with you so I can do. which KK if it's
really thick and in my opinion heavy card stock is going to be it the
hallmark
have a decent business card can someone something flimsy
the first impression is not a good one that's why I'm talking about doing it
this way
many other ways to cut paper extremely precise that you could do print and cut
on your
so it can help and problem solved it's just not the calf
for my taste me so what are we going to do here
fantastic this I'm here as you can see I'm had to be precise I am going to make
sure that
at least one edges lined up I'm gonna drive myself crazy if I try to
pick out what I want to to cut out on the back just not find some paper that
you live
and go with it
see it out tonight mystery on their
it just doesn't matter shale I up
what kind of
any the sticker because that's my guide now get this cut straight
it's not going to be Ste it's not quite align I might die
correctly this is time-intensive
its not a cheaper way to go then ordering business cards but it is
cheaper way to go if your gonna keep
changing what your business card says right you can see that
it's not perfectly aligned here and that doesn't really matter
all that matters is that it got the exact
because this is a leader whatever you want to call it
this is not part of cars gonna get cut out so now I'm gonna do
is a line s exactly on here pick up your phone think that is now we've got three
layers of paper
and all I did was use close to come aside sticker paper on this time
if you do it with a laser printer your event it's given gonna be nicer and
sharper
so it now about it exactly aligned here happened just three
its ticker papers in shape so you can you use like post it now
or even tape because overhanging
you can stick it down if you want to make sure it doesn't shift
spring and i cant in
up
but I
I but guess what because I'm getting tired
topic okay check this out this is really almost
over Cal there is my beautiful business card template help pick that is
this is point a pic which is really very it's like credit card
kick I think that's beautiful
defined by Ni 2+ I keep dark in the edges either with the HRP
take a ticket sharpy and do the edge
for even easier you hi taking
pad and just slide across their
think Alex ni to travel long edge think it's really nice
in the right setting I would be proud to hand them out have contacted
I'm 6 about getting custom time ask them for a quote
on getting a cleared I like to kiss me and
business card size with just wine cut in the center
it's a hundred dollars snarling but they're having a
percent off sale so
it be sixty-five dollars for wind I
and I probably would have jumped on that except now I've come up with this
solution
and I've gotten them business cards that I really love
crown best friend and so I'm not that motivated to do it now
I can't believe no one's make this already it just seems like
such no brainer anyway I feel like the minute I
pay a hundred dollars for one then I'll start mass-producing and
nopee Michaels for
bucks I was going to include the screen capture
