another way of doing the half cut card

Here is another way of making the half-cut card:

 

 

Firstly, score a card to make a trifold style. The other trifold mark is only along the edges. This is where you will die cut. ( The pencil mark here is just to show for demonstration.)

 Then, lay the die of your choice on the area that you did not fully score in such a manner that it is halway (central) of the crease. Be sure to tape the die on the card using low tack tape.

This time instead of the larger portion of the card hanging on the cutting plate, it is the shorter portion with half of the die.

Postion the base plate on top and run through the machine, inserting the hanging portion first.

Remove the die and complete the crease to the edge of the cut and it should look like this now.

Lay down the other parts of the die in the center of the cut as you wish, tape and then cut.

Remove the dies and bits and pieces

Fold the creases/ scores

Here is  one style you can do.

Another one (the same as the first demo I made

And another one

Design as you wish.

 

(NOTE: This method is only apllicable to dies with separate borders like the Tonic Verso and the Indulgence Dies.)
