Review on 🌺 Shapeabilities Layered Poinsettia Die Set by Spellbinders S5-055: Etched/Wafer Thin Dies by Michelle Langley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

After cutting and embossing, the paper becomes quite brittle, causing the petals to peel off

Stamping and embossing set for maximum realism. I had a small problem on arrival but Revane took care of it in no time! As for the stamp itself, I wish it had bigger pieces and I wish it didn't cut the poinsettia bracts so narrowly down the middle where they meet. After you cut the sections and then extrude them, the paper becomes quite brittle, causing the petals to separate into eight pieces. If each cube were a little larger, it could be less prone to breakage. Please note that the actual poinsettia center is not included. You need to create something or use Orange and Yellow Nuvo Gloss Drops. Nuvo Drops in Gloss are fantastic. What happens instead if the stamens are 2 holly berries along with a leaf suitable as holly leaf or poinsettia leaf/bract?

Pros
  • Die-cutting and embossing
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
