Okay, enough unpleasant talk about doctors, hospitals, death, and looking for health insurance leads. I want to talk about these cool new Sizzix dies that are out now, some of which are exclusive to Stampin’ Up! and are only available from them. They are called the Bigz XL, and yeah, they are BIG!
These things are GINORMOUS! You will need to buy the Extended Cutting Pads in order to use these in your Big Shot or BigKick machines. They are too big to fit into the Cuttlebug, though. Just so you know!
You can see a selection of the Bigz XL dies at Sizzix.com. However, as I said, Sizzix has teamed up with Stampin’ Up! to offer some more designs that are exclusive to SU. One of these is the Matchbox die…you can cut out the shapes to make a most adorable little matchbox, in which you can put candy or other tiny goodies. I just got this in the mail the other day, and it is SO cool! I’m sure I will get a lot of use out of this one!
These dies measure a whopping 13 inches long by 6 inches wide. They can cut through paper, cardstock, felt, and other materials.
If you are looking for a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, please visit my friend Annette Stewart. Her blog offers many fun ideas for using SU products, and also has a link to order online directly from her. It doesn’t matter whee you live, she will ship your orders anywhere. She also offers some cool clubs, one of which I am a member. And, once again, long-distance members are accepted. Each month, a different member gets to be the *hostess*, and that means FREE STUFF!
If you visit Annette and buy anything, please tell her I sent you, ‘k? Thanks!
