B&W thanks

Dies: Parker alphabet (Memory Box)
2 posts in one day, after a month of silence? A positive blogging frenzy!
This is a technique I saw a while ago (might have been Damask Love?) where you position the dies so that the edge of the die is just over the edge of the cutting plates.  Yes, it is as fiddly as it sounds, but I figure I'm owed some fiddle time.
