This is the Sweetest Time Bundle. The die is 6″ long, making it easy to create the 12″ border you need to scrapbook. Not to mention the dies give you other embellishment you can you to accent your pages. Like candy canes, used here cut out of designer series paper. I stack them 3 high with dimensional between each layer. I also to be sure that the top one is sturdy, so I add white cards stock under it. Then I enjoy cutting out other candy canes from the dies, to put all around my layout. Quick easy and haves you all sorts of money.
That’s not all you can make with this bundle. Remember it also has a 6″ holly die. Again you can cut it twice to create the perfect 12″ border.
