Christmas in July Week - Day Seven: Partial Die Cutting

Hello friends! Tomorrow is the day! The 2012 Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog goes LIVE to the public! I'd like to thank you for joining me for the past 7 days. I hope you've enjoyed the projects I shared and that you're as excited about the Holiday Catalog as I am! :)

For the last day of Christmas in July, I wanted to share an awesome die cutting technique I learned from Jennifer McGuire during the recent Stretch Your Stamps class at Online Card Classes. It's called partial die cutting. This card was my first time trying the technique and I can't wait to experiment with it some more! Check out how it's done in the video below or on YouTube.

Thanks again for joining me for the past 7 days. Make sure you visit my website tomorrow to check out the Holiday Catalog in it's entirety! :)
