Easy way to use Marianne Creatable dies

For those who are fed up of picking out little bits of these dies, here is an easy solution. I find if you put the die through twice (I have a Big Shot) then LEAVE the paper in the die whilst you quickly scrape all the little bits out with a pin/tweezers etc. Then using a little blob of Blu Tack, carefully lift it out of the die. I find it a quick and easy way to use on the butterfly and because its still in the die, you don't tear the delicate paper.

Treat yourself to a sheet of self adhesive ejection foam - its brilliant. I also add an extra piece of thin card or paper over the top and use this a a backing piece. It embosses but the pieces won't come out, so just cut round the edge.

In this card I laid black card over the die and then silver mirror card on top. The black piece cut beautifully and the silver is in one piece ready to cut out (minus the antenna)
