piece of paper. I used the lines on my guillotine as a guide to cut the frame.

Happy Papercrafting!”
Tip: Press + Emboss = Major WOW Factor
Pairing BetterPress plates with an embossing folder background adds instant texture and a professional finish.
Tip: Try Color Variations for Quick Coordination
Switching between metallic wax on black cardstock and ink blending on white cardstock gives you two unique looks using the same folder.
Tip: Use a Paper Frame to Keep Layers Clean & Crisp
A simple frame cut from patterned paper makes the card look polished and helps guide placement.
Tip: Keep Sentiments Visible
Place your BetterPress sentiment along the side or on top of embellishments so it doesn’t get lost in the layers.
Tip: Don’t Overthink It—Just Have Fun!
This is the perfect project to experiment with dimension, texture, and bold color combos.
