Die cutting: How does it work?

What is die cutting? How does the process start? Great questions that we address in this video.<br /><br />The first step is to contact us and send us the item you'd like to package.<br /><br />We then measure your item, and discuss what type of package you'd like.<br /><br />From there we generate a dieline, which is a flat diagram of the die cut shape, and send you that as a PDF. With that file you'll be able to complete you design. When you art is ready you'll email it to us and we print and die cut your job. <br /><br />To start your project visit us at: https://normansprintery.com
