HUGE TIP for when using intricate thinlits with your Big Shot. For EASY removal of your die cut image, build your cutting sandwich like this:
Magnetic Platform or Standard Platform
Cutting Pad
Dryer Sheet ($1.00 store, unscented)
Card Stock
Wax Paper
Die
Cutting Pad
Watch an awesome video about using the dryer sheet by Patty Bennett, here:
Butterfly Panel:
Die cut your butterfly from the panel just where you want it to be. Adhere your panel directly onto your card base. (Use a bone folder to curl the wings slightly.)
Then, add a glue dot to your butterfly and align the tail/bottom back into the negative space and lay the butterfly back down so that the glue dot will hold it in place to the card!
DSP Panel:
-- Adhere dsp strip to Coastal Cabana panel.
-- Then snail down your ribbon ends to the back of the strip/panel.
-- THEN adhere your panel to your card front.
Thanks for looking! I hope you'll have fun making your cards with this technique, also!
Cheers!

Thank you so much Susie! I really enjoyed making this card!
Aw, don't give up on the dryer sheet. I had actually folded mine in half. Each Big Shot calibration is slightly different; I hope you can find a method of success for yourself! My best wishes to you!
Thank you so much for your kind comment!! Cheers!
