Dan, I figured out quickly they were just pieces of white paper-tape, forming a hinge. On the first one, I cut the cardboard away from it, then gently scraped off the part of the 'hinge' remaining on the die-cut.

For the second one, I left it attached to the cardboard, but gently pushed the die cut upward until the hinge 'rolled' off. It worked perfectly, so I did that for the rest of them.

I have found that these 'hinges', if left attached to paper for a long period of time, end up forming a bond that removes part of the paper on the host object, or leaves a sticky mess. Luckily, these had not formed a strong attachment to the die-cuts.
