really cute card and love the shape. About 2 weeks ago, I received these label dies AND waltzingmouse's stamps that match the dies. the larger ones would make great card shapes - I just haven't figured out how you got the total shape at the top and still have the fold? When I've done this in the past with other dies, I had to compromise the folded part's shape by placing the fold inside the die's edge.

Hi Sassy, the trick with the shape cards is to cut two totally separate shapes. Then with the shape that becomes the back of the card you score across close to the top of the shape but with enough room to place a strip of strong adhesive. You then attach the two pieces together and the score acts as a hinge allowing you to open the card without any loss of shape. Hope that helps. Debby
