You need a Brother ScanNCut! Machine!


I created a die, a faux die, to make this fun fold and it can be yours for only $6.95. The flap is designed into the cardbase, no separate piece to attach.

Oh the crafting possibilities with a Brother ScanNCut Machine . . .

No more cutting layers, no more marking your cardstock, card making made easy. This is my faux die created with Brother ScanNCut/Canvas Workspace (cwprj and .fcm files) is available for purchase for $6.95. It includes cut files and information pictures of the files mentioned below. Life made easy! No more expensive dies! Invest in a Brother ScanNCut machine, my affliliate link is HERE. I use the SDX85C model. You can find so many resources on YouTube to get you started using the machine, it takes time but it is so worth it. Once you've mastered the basic steps, come back here and check out my tutorial on how to create your own faux dies using your stamp sets. EMAIL me for more information.

There are so many crafting possibilities when you learn how to use your BSNC machine. I own the Nested Friends stamp set and created BSNC files to cut out blank birds and it is easy to stamp directly on the cutouts, no more fussy cutting. Do you have trouble getting the best stamped image because of juicy ink pads, especially when stamping ten or twenty birds? You don't need to stamp each one - I have a master sheet of the stamped bird image; I simply put any colored cardstock into my printer and print as many birds as I need. I use the BSNC to cut out the birds. I use the master sheet and print them out using ink that matches Stampin' Up! colors. You can find the RGB color codes online for every Stampin' Up! color. Click HERE to see what RGB codes that can easily be found on the internet. Most people aren't aware that this information is available, all you have to do is think out of the box and take stamping to a new level.

Hate punching? Do your wrists bother you? I created a BSNC file of the branch by using my Bird Builder punch. Sit back, put your feet up and let your Brother ScanNCut do all the work. I do not sell Stampin' Up! stamped images. I purchased the stamps, dies and punches for my personal use. This is an example of what you can do with a Brother ScanNCut machine. You need to put THIS on your Christmas Wishlist on Amazon. Check out the BSNC machines and accessories I use HERE (I own two differents models). Be sure to purchase correct accessories for your machine.  You can find so many resources on YouTube to get you started using the machine, it takes time but it is so worth it.

This tutorial always making two card bases out of one 8 1/2" x 11" piece of cardstock. Included is a picture on how to cut the 6" x 6" DSP. Don't waste your gorgeous cardstock, save the stress and purchase all the measurements and instructions from me.
