Sizing Guidance

The largest arch nearly fills an A6 portrait card front, creating a substantial full-panel design with only a narrow margin around the outside.

The second and third sizes leave more surrounding space for borders, sentiments and embellishments. The two smaller dies work well as central focal panels, labels, photograph mats and decorative apertures.

Use individual dies to create solid arch panels or position two sizes together to cut coordinating frames and windows.

Ideal Card Sizes

• A6 portrait – full arch card fronts and layered panels
• 5x7 – graduated arch layers with generous surrounding space
• 6x6 – centred arch focal panels and rainbow designs
• A5 – larger toppers with room for sentiments and embellishments

Perfect For

• Decorative card-front panels
• Frames and apertures
• Shaker card windows
• Doorway and window-style scenes

Description

This torn edge arch nesting die set contains five graduated shapes for creating coordinated panels, frames and apertures. The rounded upper section and straight base form a versatile arch shape, while the softly uneven deckle-style outline adds a handmade torn-paper effect to every cut.

Layer the different sizes in contrasting colours to create rainbow-inspired designs or use coordinating cardstock for elegant tonal panels. Two dies can also be used together to produce decorative frames, windows and shaker card openings.

The generous range of sizes makes the set suitable for substantial A6 card fronts as well as smaller central toppers and sentiment panels. Made from durable carbon steel, the dies provide clean, reusable cuts in paper, cardstock and similar papercraft materials.
