And the best part, you don\u2019t need to do much to them to make them come into their own right.<\/p>\n<p>For this layout I created a really busy background using inks and patterned papers. I wanted to add some soft flowers, but that didn\u2019t work with the background so I opted for some die cuts to dress up my layout and finish it off.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Here\u2019s what I did:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4>Step 1<\/h4>\n<p>I used the beautiful Prima flower die cuts and cut 3 large flowers out of smooth white AC cardstock. I left them white as is. To make the delicate cuts release easily from the die, I used Quick release paper between my die and cardstock.<\/li>\n<p><a ref=\"magnificPopup\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Cutting-Dies-On-A-Layout-step-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Cutting-Dies-On-A-Layout-step-1.jpg\" alt=\"Cutting Dies On A Layout - step 1\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Cutting-Dies-On-A-Layout-step-1.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Cutting-Dies-On-A-Layout-step-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Cutting-Dies-On-A-Layout-step-1-1320x880.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Cutting-Dies-On-A-Layout-step-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Cutting-Dies-On-A-Layout-step-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Cutting-Dies-On-A-Layout-step-1-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.thewholesaler.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Cutting-Dies-On-A-Layout-step-1-140x94.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<li>\n<h4>Step 2<\/h4>\n<p>I then cut some yellow flowers using yellow smooth cardstock.
