Review on Sizzix Tim Holtz Potted Bigz Die: Multi-color, One Size - Get Creative! by Mary Day

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great design at an overpriced price should have been a classy steel ruler stamp.

This is so wasteful, this company could put a lot more into this matrix, only half the space on this basis is used. The shapes are so simple that anyone could draw and carve them by hand, given all the greenhouse gas emissions wasted in mass production, it could easily be sold as an .svg file for less than a dollar. It will take a lot of work and a lot of extra product to make the cut parts look like the picture. If you can do all this, the finished design is a very good classic for all floral stamps, however it cannot be scaled (as an .SVG file) to work with other stamps, which is my biggest disappointment with these expensive stamps. Sizzix needs to add value to these "big" matrices, either by adding more cut-off pieces to each one if they leave a lot of space, or by planning to eliminate them, especially if they're steel. Now you can cut thin chipboard. Currently, the only stamps that have any real benefit as non-digital stamps are very complex stamps. I haven't bought a stamp in a while and forgot to look up the product listing on Sizzix to see what the actual mold details look like.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • I have no negative feelings about it, it's ok
