We appreciate you for making time thus far to create a die-cut card and submit it to MTTC #515!!! Whether you use a purchased die-cut or use your home device for die-cutting, either process is acceptable for #515. As long as you have 1 die-cut, you are good to link-up! I've used two (a blue with pink insert frame and the two children around a birthday cake) on mine. How many have you used? --Becca
