Diecuts!

Hi Everyone! So my long/regular posts will start from today, the past small ones were just to quickly post because I was busy but still wanted to have some posts on my craft site up for you guys. :) Also I will feature/show some eid cards that I made soon. But for today, I will be doing a post on diecuts! If your wondering hmm what are diecuts?? Well, they are pieces of paper/cardstock cut into shapes usually by some diecutting machine. Most crafters know about diecuts so its normal if you don't know what they are. Now below is a pic of a diecut that I cut using my cricut machine(which is a diecutting machine).

I love using diecuts because you can cut words or even a shape to use as the main focus of your card. Heres a pic of an example of a shape heart diecut below. My favorite part using shape diecuts is that you can use cute patterned paper. :)

Now if you don't have a diecut machine since they can be pricey, try using a stamp. Just stamp then cut out and you have a diecut! Below is a pic of a good example of a stamp set that you could use to make diecuts.


Now I hope you guys learned more about what diecuts are because I'm gonna be using them in the future a lot on my cards! If you have any tips or suggestions for posts or any other fun stuff you wanna see on CFWH, then remember to email me at craftingfunwithhamna@yahoo.com! That's it for now! Keep On Crafting!
