Use Die Cut Negatives as Stencils

Use Die Cut Negatives as Stencils to create a Valentine Card with three rows of pink connected stenciled hearts, the word 'Love' in bold red and two tiny pink heart embellishments.

Turn your Paper Pumpkin Hearts for You die cut negatives into amazing stencils with this easy crafting hack! You know those pieces we usually toss in the trash after popping out our die cuts? I’ve got an awesome way to use them that’ll make you think twice about throwing them away.

With just a bit of washi tap, these “leftovers” become fantastic stencils for your cards and other paper crafts. I love finding ways to stretch my crafting supplies, and this technique is such a fun discovery. Plus, who doesn’t love getting more value from their Paper Pumpkin kit?

Apply strips of washi tape to Both sides of the die cut negatives, creating a stencil to be used over and over.

I even made Die Cut Negatives Stencils using the large single hearts from the January 2025 Hearts for You Paper Pumpkin Kit. Not a subscriber to Paper Pumpkin? Get next month’s kit by subscribing before the 10th of the month here. And watch for more of my posts featuring January’s kit this week.
