Candles Set - Marianne Design CR1426

These dies are primarily designed for cutting cardstock. They may be able to cut thin craft foam or other thin paper crafting materials, but compatibility is best with cardstock.

Wipe the dies clean with a dry cloth or a slightly damp cloth after each use. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent rust.

While designed for manual die-cutting systems, they can often be used with electronic machines if the machine has a manual blade depth adjustment or can accommodate wafer-thin dies in a specific setting. Consult your electronic machine's manual.

The set includes four candle dies with approximate dimensions: 6 x 56 mm, 17 x 58 mm, 32 x 61 mm, and 25 x 61 mm.

Yes, as long as you have a compatible die-cutting machine, these dies are straightforward to use and are excellent for adding detailed elements to beginner craft projects.

While themed for Christmas, the candle shapes can be incorporated into other designs, such as birthday cards, memorial crafts, or even general decorative elements, depending on your creative vision.

Ensure you are using the correct plate combination for your die-cutting machine. You may need to add a shim (thin piece of cardstock or paper) to increase pressure or run the die through the machine an additional time.

Check if the die is dull or if too much pressure is being applied. Try reducing the pressure slightly or using a slightly thinner cardstock. Ensure the cardstock is placed flat and smoothly before cutting.

Use a die-brush tool or a fine-point craft tool to gently push out the cut pieces from the die. Be careful not to scratch the die surface.

This set is made of metal and should be kept dry. If rust spots appear, try gently cleaning them with a metal polish designed for crafting tools, then dry thoroughly and store properly.
