Hero Arts Nesting Rectangle Infinity Dies — DI198 9-piece set, precise metal frames for cards & scrapbooks

These nesting rectangle dies give papercrafters a quick way to add clean, architectural borders and window frames to projects. Engineered for consistent alignment and durable performance, the set works with most standard die-cutting machines and a wide range of stamp-and-paper products. Made in the USA by Hero Arts, the dies combine a selection of sizes, strong cutting edges, and compatibility with common crafting materials so you can create layered looks without guesswork.

How do these dies improve the look of handmade cards?

Using nested rectangles produces sharp, repeated frames that draw the eye and create professional-looking layers. They make it simple to guide focus to a stamped sentiment or an illustrated centrepiece while adding architectural structure to your layout.

• Produces consistent, even borders for a polished finish
• Makes matting and layering faster and more precise
• Works well for window cards and inset panels

Will the dies cut through different papercraft materials?

The dies are built with sturdy metal and fine cutting surfaces that handle most stamping and paper materials. They reliably cut cardstock, patterned paper, thin chipboard, and some light specialty papers when used with a compatible die-cutting machine.

• Suitable for standard cardstock and patterned paper
• Can cut thin chipboard and lightweight mixed-media papers
• Recommended to test thicker or highly textured materials first

How do nesting dies save time and improve precision?

Nesting dies are sized to stack and align, eliminating repeated measuring and trimming. This set’s graduated rectangles let you pick the exact frame width you need, speeding up production of multiple cards or coordinated layouts.

• Multiple sizes in one set for fast selection and consistency
• Precise edges reduce the need for cleanup and re-cutting
• Ideal for mass-producing matching card fronts or layers

Are these dies compatible with other Hero Arts products and machines?

Yes — the dies are universally compatible with most leading manual die-cutting platforms and pair naturally with Hero Arts stamps and papers. Their design complements the brand’s paper-crafting ecosystem for seamless integration into your projects.
