Kate used her nested circle dies to create these adorable candy corn die cuts. Begin by choosing the largest circle die in the set, then count 4 dies down in size and choose the one after that. Then skip another 4 circles and chose the next one after that (so 4 circles apart for each layer). This seemed to be the perfect spacing to create even colors.

Next,  glue one circle on top of the other centered with the largest circle on the bottom.

Flip over the circle and divide the circle into 6 even parts. The easiest way to do this is to cut the circle in half, put the pieces back together and then draw an "X" (see photo).

Use a corner rounder to round off the edges of the candy corn. You can easily do this with a pair of scissors. Now you have six candy corn embellishments to use for your Halloween cardmaking.
