Your Own Sentiment

How to make your own sentiment in a card

The first thing is to open word and type in your sentiment...several times and sizes to see which one will work best.  Leave word open so you can print again when label is adhered to copy paper.

Take your die cut  (I ususally cut two) put one behind the sentiment and see exactly where the words fall. 

Carefully place the die cut you want to print on...on top of sentiment  lining up perfectly so sentiment will print exactly where you want it to.

Next, take masking tape and make sure that you take off as much sticky as you can before adhering to diecut on paper.  I just stick it to my pants and pull off several times..  

Place diecut on copy paper and gently adhere the masking tape 

Next you can put the paper into the paper tray in your computer,  head first and  facing down.....

It should print out perfectly centered on your label and if you put the tape on loose it should peel right off and be ready to add to your card.

Thank you for looking.
