I wanted to use the Festive Framed Photos die for my hot foiled pieces, but the larger die is just a teeny tiny bit taller than a standard size card, so, I altered the die to fit better on my cards!

Simply slice the die cut piece somewhere in the middle section, overlap the 2 pieces to make the shape smaller, then cover the seam with ribbon!!

I used the Garden Silhouette hot foil die for my backgrounds.
