Simple instructions for Grande Swirl Edge Dies: Fold a piece of cardstock to create a card base. Using a contrasting colour of cardstock, cut a piece to measure the same size as the front of the card base. Place the die vertically onto the front of your card base so that the die reaches both the top and bottom edges of the card base. Secure with low tack tape. Run this through your die-cutting machine. Once cut, carefully remove the die. You will be left with the right-hand side cut away from your card base, and the left-hand side still connected. The edge will be shaped by the scroll die. Adhere the piece of card you created in Step 2 to the underside of the front of the card base to recreate a full card front. Place the die onto a piece of gold cardstock and secure it with low-tack tape. Run this through your die-cutting machine. Once cut, carefully remove the die. Place the gold die-cut scroll into the ‘scroll space’ you created in the card base in Step 5. There is your card! It's as simple as that!
