Die cut instant photo pull-out die. 2. Using Side 2 of the Stitching impression plate, run through embossing machine. 3. Assemble die cut with scor-tape. 4. To make panel, trim cardstock to 6.25" x 1.5" and score at 2" and 5". TIP: To save cardstock (and limit bulk), you can simply add 3" x 1.5" cardstock to the photo card front. 5. Stamp sentiment on cardstock panel (centered). 6. Embellish the front with two holly die cut leaves and a button threaded with twine. 7. Newsletter insert: In word document program, adjust page setup or paper size to 3" x 5.25". Adjust the margins to allow the text to spread across the entire page (almost). Leave a little room at the top to allow space for the pull-out. Print directly on the photo pull-out die cut (on the reverse side). 8. Pull-out front: Print 2.5" square photo and adhere to the bottom of the die cut, making sure it fits in the window of the photo card. At the top, stamp a sentiment. Punch a hole, add an eyelet, and thread ribbon through to allow the recipient to easily pull out the insert. To limit bulk, this step can be removed. 9. Don't forget to add an arrow to remind recipients to turn over the pull-out die cut to read the newsletter on the reverse side. I used an arrow from Movers & Shakers stamp set.
