Plate Sandwich Guide for Using Hunkydory Moonstone Die Sets

This handy guide describes the sandwich formations used for running Moonstone Dies through the various die-cutting machines, to help acheive the perfect cut from your dies. Please note the smaller die-cutting machines may not accomodate the Moonstone Frame dies. We'd suggest you make sure to check the sizing of the die and your machine's dimensions before purchasing.
