Hi friends! I hope you are having a wonderful day. Today, I am sharing some hacks and ideas to save time while die cutting while using some beautiful new dies from Altenew.

My Favorite hack is to cut your die out of white cardstock and color the different parts using ink pads. This saves so much time instead of running several colors through the die cutting machine and saves cardstock.

I also added Lunar Paste to the different pieces of the die cuts to make them stand out and shine. This is my favorite way to embellish a card with shine that won’t rub off on your fingers when dry!
