How do you use this?

Screen Door w/Cat from Cheery Lynn Designs. It's a die (I think) and it says 2 pieces of pre-cut screen is included with it.

What a cool site! I'm just guessing, but it looks like the die cuts the door and the cat. Maybe the screen is layered on the back of the door? Really neat, however!

I'm thinking Valli is right. It looks adorable and I would love to see it!

Thanks for replying. I was looking at it again after I posted this message and wondering if you cut the screen door out with the die and then place the screen in the openings for a realistic screen look. I have a thing for old creaky "Waltons type" screen doors...and actually have one as the door to my hobby room instead of a regular door. ;)

I really think I need this die-thingy don't you? LOL

[Valli]

Absolutely!! ;)

I think if you were to contact them and ask they would give you the instructions you need. I love their dies. I have one of their dogs and one of their cats and plan on buying others.

Yes, ladies, you are correct. The die cuts out the Screen door and the bonus kitty. You cut two doors, cut an opening in your card and then sandwich the screen and your card stock between the doors. You can see two examples in my gallery

You can use any machine to cut the dies but I recommend purchasing a Cuttlehug from Cheery Lynn, it is a metal adaptor plate and really makes cutting intricate dies a breeze.

Check out the Cheery Lynn Designs blog for more inspiration.

I have lots of the Cheery Lynn dies and they are fabulous. I can make a 5.5 square card or 5x7 card cut out with some of them without having to buy another machine. Just fold over the CS and lay the die a little above or over the line. They are super and the intricate ones cut very well also. I'm using a cuttlebug so I did get the silver cuttlehug plate that he sells as well for the tiny details, it just works as a really good shim. I love these new dies and I get them within a few days of ordering.
