Just got my first order from VERVE--Very impressed!! Quick service and they even threw in a small free stamp! whhawhho--
I bought Floral Circles Die set along with Hope Blooms stamp set (which I had been wanting for some time- there are two guide dots on each die -but not sure where they line up on the stamp?? They even have a plastic alignment tool-but having trouble aligning the die w stamp??!!
Thanks for any help!
I think this is how it works. Stamp your image. Place the clear plastic die outline over the stamped image. When you get it where you like it, mark the position by putting pencil marks in the guide dots. Remove the clear plastic die outline and place the metal die over the image, using the guide dot marks. Use your cutting machine of choice. This should ensure your image is centered once cut.
Sherry, Pat is correct. I even put a small piece of tape onto the die itself before running it through my Big Shot, to keep it in place. Let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks for buying Verve!

Thanks so much for the reply-I did see this-but this design is pretty easy to match -compared to the flowers with the different angles around it!
Thanks again!
Ah! Yes, I remember that one doesn't seem to quite line up exactly regardless of the angle. You picked a trickier one. But I don't think it's noticeable. I run a pen in the color of my ink along the edges once cut...
Hope you were able to figure out a good way.
