I'm sitting on my couch with an icky stomach – hoping it's not this stomach bug going around. Maybe I should just stop watching all they twirling and swirling going on with the Olympic figure skating and men's aerials.
Meanwhile, someone asked me how I did the cutout on this card, extending the image past the Nestabilities oval die.
I love, love the look of this technique, and it's really pretty easy. Here's a video from Paperthreads that shows how to do it. If you can't see the video, here's the link. This video made me a new fan of the Paperthreads Blog for all it's great tutorials for die cuts and stamping.
Leave me a comment with a link to your projects if you try this technique – I'd love to see what you create!













Welcome to Mo's as guest designer! Love to see what you create! Denise
Denise – Thank you! I am so freakin' excited! I'm a Mo Digial Pencil fanatic – and I love all the work you and the other design team members do. Such an honor!!!
I'm probably the only papercrafter out here that hasn't used nestabilities-but your tutorial made me want to try! Beautiful card! Thanks for sharing. Hope you feel better soon (I had "the bug" last week-end–not fun!) : ( Blessings, Sharon
That was a really neat tutorial. Thank you!
Congrats on being a guest designer for Mo. I just realised that your boat card was one of my favourites during the challenge – the colouring is fantastic. Looking forward to seeing further designs using Mo's digis.

I am thrilled with your video. Even with the speakers on my computer not working, I was able to follow it well. Thanks for the lesson, and keep up the good work! I may even USE my Nesties now!
