Don't wait to long, some companies have a 30 day limit to return merchandise.<br />Good luck, my friend.<br />Maria.Maria Rodriguez.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14975622954781952749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386540663798722826.post-15388580714005727072016-04-06T07:01:58.355+10:002016-04-06T07:01:58.355+10:00This is gorgeous, Aileen.

The pop you get from your coloring contrasted with the delicate black and white really makes this card outstanding. So flattered to be CASEd by you, and thanks so much for playing along at HLS Case the Designer this month. As for your die--I don't have that one, but it seems like you have tried all the tricks. The only other thing I would suggest is to try flipping the die over and/or moving it to a different part of your cutting plate or rotating it. If none of those work, you may have received a bum die, and I would hope they could replace it. That has happened to me before, and a new die worked much better.Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00628064051832366762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386540663798722826.post-34661776822016147202016-04-06T01:08:29.980+10:002016-04-06T01:08:29.980+10:00STUNNING creation Aileen!

It's more about the release, but you never know~(however, you may want to contact the manufacturer before altering it). I had a similar situation with Spellbinders and they sent me another.Marlena M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07155797901572741026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386540663798722826.post-48224542321964452112016-04-06T01:03:46.625+10:002016-04-06T01:03:46.625+10:00Gorgeous card Aileen.

Love the whole layout and your colouring is beautiful. Afraid I can't help with the die, but it may be that the steel edges aren't defined enough to get it to cut. It may be worth contacting the manufacturer. Memory Box are usually very reliable so I'm surprised. Sometimes I have to rotate the cardstock in my machine and cut it the other way to get a cleaner cut, but that is very rare.
