Review on Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 2PK by Sasha Hsiao

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Beautiful Design - Review Cuttlebug

The larger piece appears to be cut unevenly. I've run it with paper of different thicknesses and added/removed shims to adjust the pressure, but I have to run my cuttlebug multiple times. The smaller piece has no problem. I think it's a little misshapen but I hope it gets fixed with use. So far I've been training with him on scrap. And I use the uncut pieces to practice freehand carving. The sandwich I use is Panel A, 1-2 spacers (cereal box), Sizzix Rubber Mat, Panel B, Cardboard, Sizzix Thinlit Matrix, Panel B. I've run it through a few times. I made an embossing texture sheet using a smaller die. I like the effect. I plan to make more patterns out of it for embossing. I was very impressed with how well it works. The packaging is really good as it is a snap sleeve perfect for storing my stamps. I only have a few of these so organizing isn't a problem yet. I've seen others use stamps to cut out a pattern and attach it to the case to make the design easier to locate. I hope this works well on vinyl as I would like to cut it out to make a label for the cover.

Pros
  • Scrapbooking and Stamping
Cons
  • Crumpled
