The cutaway card backings have adhesive so you just stick it into place and start cutting your design! The machine will only cut through the top layer, making it easier than ever to creat a custom card in minutes.

(Gifted) I recently received some products from @g (Gifted) I recently received some products from @go.picky and one of my fav skincare brands, @isntree, in exchange for my honest review. I really loved using each one of these  products, so I thought I would share my review here too. I noticed a difference within a few days of using these products and would recommend all of them! 

🌰 Chestnut AHA 8% Clear Essence:
The chestnut AHA essence is sensitive skin friendly, moisturizing and helps remove dead skin cells. This essence is very light-weight, refreshing, gentle and absorbs quickly. I have very sensitive skin and used it daily with no issues. 

🤍 TW-Real Bifida Ampoule:
This bifida serum strengthens your skin barrier, reduces wrinkles and brightens your complexion. It’s light-weight but still is packed with moisture. It also absorbs quickly and isn’t sticky. It left my skin feeling silky smooth and glowing. It also layers with other serums nicely.

🌿 Mugwort Calming Cream:
The mugwort cream is incredibly calming, moisturizing and great for acne-prone skin. It feels soothing upon application. It’s not greasy or too heavy, and a little really goes a long way which I loved. I‘ve been using these products as part of my nighttime routine, but this cream absorbs quickly as well and would layer nicely with other products or under SPF.

They’re different from Insert Cards in the sense that you’re no longer required to design with stencil images and fonts, so you can avoid tiny, floating pieces. This means you can use almost any image in the library to create a card! The backing actually has adhesive, making it easier than ever to stick it into place.

If you want to learn more about it, there are a few posts all about it on my blog (link in bio).
