A QuicKutz cutting die is a wafer thin, 100% steel, chemically etched template that "punches" or cuts a shape out of cardstock, felt, fabric and other paper goods and materials. Die cutting is simple and opens up a whole world of creative possibilities!

We have created a new education center where you can learn all about cutting dies and tap into a world of unlimited creativity. Visit our new die education hub at lifestylecrafts.com/cutting-dies

With our new Detailz dies you can add a variety of decorative elements to your die cut shape. Today we are going to talk about stenciling! We will show you 2 different techniques that will add that extra flair to your creative projects.

First: Stenciling with an ink pen 

Next: Stenciling with an ink pad

One of our affiliates, Nina from waffleflower, used a fun technique by stenciling her Detailz dies with some Distress Inks.  The embossed areas take more ink and makes the details pop. We love this idea!

Products used: Petals Detailz die, Flags Detailz die, Nesting Dies included in Genius Ultimate Platform
