Fold all cards along score lines and reinforce creases with a bone folder. Before making creases, check to make sure that all edges are aligned. The edges of many finished cards, panels and die cuts have been colored with ink. This step is optional, and the directions to ink edges are not included below. For a softer look, ink with a sponge or stylus tool with blender tip. For a bolder effect, ink directly from the pad onto the card. If you do not have an item required to complete a card, simply omit the step or substitute the item.
