How we do it:
02
Cut 17 x 16.5 cm rectangles from the colored cardboard. Using the cutter, carefully mark lines on the upper side, parallel to the 17-cm edge in 3-cm spaces. The remaining 1.5 cm will be used as gluing tab. Now carefully mark a line with the cutter - 4 cm from the 16.5-cm edge.
03
Apply a strip of tesa® Masking Tape CURVES along this line.

Stamp the middle section from the outside.

Peel-off the protective film from the adhesive tape.
