    How to Use Dies for Card Making

    Say you want to create a paper card for a birthday, you need to:

    1. Select a card die set.
    2. Sandwich the card-making dies and your paper within two cutting pads.
    3. Pass it all through your die-cutter. You will find it usually takes more than one pass.
    4. Remove all the die-cut pieces from your cutting pads. Using hand tools makes this a much easier process.
    5. Put your card together. The more intricate the design, the more time it will take to assemble. You are going to need some glue.

    It's easy to use dies for card making. Most dies will cut various materials, like patterned cardstock paper, vellum, and more.

    Pro tip: did you know that Sizzix Thinlits dies can be used to stencil and emboss? Those are a great way to add extra detail to your cuts. Check out the Drop-ins for lots of fun variety for card decorating solutions.

    Types of Cards

    There are lots of different styles you can create using our fancy dies for card making. Here are some of the different directions you can take your project:

    • Standard folding cards - most cards fold in half. However, you can make it open horizontally or vertically.
    • Tri-fold cards - these are the cards that look sort of like an accordion when they are opened.
    • Gatefold cards - this style has two panels that open towards you, sort of like a saloon door.
    • Flip-its - this is a type of card-making die set made by Sizzix, and the finished product has dynamic, moving parts. Check them out!
    • Step-ups - another creation from Sizzix; these are super popular because of their unique "steps."
    • Stand-ups - Sizzix has made cards that stand up in interesting ways.
    • And more!
