Step-by-Step Tutorial:

  2. Secure stencil and ink up.
  3. Select your word die.
  4. Ink up the bottom portion of cardstock.
  5. Secure the word die so when you cut, it resembles an ombre effect.
  6. Choose your sentiment stamp.
  7. Once you are happy with the design, adhere the word die cut and stamp the sentiment.
  8. Lastly, add your finishing touches.
