ASMR stands for "Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response." It typically refers to the "tingly feeling" that travels from the head downward that some experience in response to certain sounds, feelings, or descriptions. These can include soft whispering, crinkling paper, or a gentle touch.

OH MY GOSH! SO SO FUNNY! I’M LAUGHING SO HARD! I said “Rhonda not talking 😱😂! Never!” You almost made it. Love ya ❤️🙋🏻‍♀️🤗

Wonderful !!! Thanks for sharing ❤ looks like a lot of fun 🤩 ❤

Such a GREAT video. Thanks for sharing your AMAZING trip. Friends forever……Big hugs ❤️🙋🏻‍♀️🤗

I just recently bought one. I havent tri

So glad I did a search for this DP set and found your video!!! Really helpful!

I have been stalking looking for those trees and I either missed or our stores didn’t get last year. Let the stalking begin this year.

Okay Rhonda……You know you put a “SMILE” on my hubby’s face! 😁😂 Great haul, so much fun stuff. Thanks for sharing. ❤️🙋🏻‍♀️🤗

Fabulous goodies my friend! I think you'll have so much fun making all those cards from those kits. While I don't gravitate towards ovals, I'm not against using them if need be. Rectangles and circles are more my jam but of course it all depends on the type of card I'm making.

Hi Rhonda! You know I love that cute little fox! 🦊 I am more of an oval person, but I guess it depends on my card base and embellishments. I didn’t get this box, it sure is great! Thanks for sharing! ❤

Nice haul! I didn’t get the DP TVS I started too but limited my money spent. I know it was hard had in my basket numerous times 😂 I think if I had to pick I am an oval or circle. I like a different shape on a rectangular card.

Anna and Diamond Press……could it get any better!! I’m more of an “oval!” But love “rectangle” too. Thanks for showing everything in the boxes. Great tutorial. Have a good day……..Hugs from California ❤️🙋🏻‍♀️🤗

Hi Rhonda. I loved catching up with your adventures on IG. Great haul. The Christmas Rose collection is beautiful. I love the peach and mint colors with the reds and pinks. I've been working on Birthday cards, my Card of the Month series and Craft Roulette cards. 🧡

Fabulous haul. The fruit theme looks great on the Cora Crea Crafts kit. I also save the Crafter's Companion envelopes too -- you just never know! With DP I also got the 2 new K-Cup sets. While I may not make the holder, the other images & sentiments really appealed to me! (I like coffee and tea in case you were curious 😆)

Just a note…The next Craft Day on HSN is: August 13. It’s a 24 hour Craft Day.

Great haul. Thank you Rhonda for showing the items, measurements and explaining all the details and the pictures of what you can create. It really helps in making a decision to purchase the items. Enjoyed the video. Welcome back……..❤️🙋🏻‍♀️🤗

Rhonda, I received the same canned message today, the funny thing is my Lilac Scout has worked perfectly for the last month, since I received it. I don't think they even read my email just hit send once they saw Scout in the subject line. I am now waiting for a follow-up response to my response. How can a machine work for a month now it won't even pull the sandwich through, it stops and pivots to the left and that's it? I am not amused.

Can’t wait to hear about your adventures. Safe travels. I got the DP k up holder set and the Christmas set that went with it.

So happy for you my friend ❤

I received my lilac one on Friday after waiting over 2 months on pre-order. I have used it a lot over the last two days and it has cut like a dream. This evening the plates kept slipping to one side and the roller was rolling but not pulling the plates through. Going to try it again tomorrow but if the problem persists it will be going back to spellbinders for a refund.

I had the same issue 😢 I got the pink one.

I had problems with mine as well. It worked fine the first several times and then all of a sudden it would not pull anything thru no matter what I did. Sent 3 videos to Spellbinders and they finally sent me a return label to return it and will refund me. It is also no longer available on Spellbinders. I did order the blue one from an independent craft company so we’ll see how it goes.

I have the lilac scout, and haven’t had any difficulty with it doing what it’s supposed to do. I’m sorry that you and others have had trouble and not the kind of response that is expected from Spellbinders. I have the platinum 6, Betterpress and glimmer systems, and like you have come to expect a level of quality based on prior purchases. I do hope that the company will appropriately address what seems to be a fairly good size of customers with similar issues.

Glad to hear I was not alone. My dies would not go through the machine. I received the same list of things to do. I was told that it was nothing wrong with the machine. I was told to return it for a refund. I thought they would at least offer me a new machine which they didn’t . While waiting for an answer from spellbinders to resolve this issue, I was watching Coffee and Crafting, where she turned the A plate over. That worked.My thought were why should I have to do this on a machine I paid go money for. I then purchased the machine from A Cherry on Top. I was totally dissatisfied with my response from Spellbinders especially with amount of money I have spent with the company. After reading the comments I was glad to see it wasn’t just me.

I also had a hard time getting the plates to go in all the way. It would slide & then stop after only about an inch went thru. So frustrating so I called Customer Service & the CSR told me it had to be seasoned. She wanted me to send her a video & proof of purchase. She mentioned in my email that the beveled edge of the 3D folder should go in first. I tried that & it worked. I also tried several other dies, they cut no problem. I didn’t know the beveled edge of the 3D embossing folder had to go in 1st. I’m sorry you’re still having issues 😢

I hope it’s better than my Prism… the gears break so easily in them because they’re crappily made with cheap soft metal and plastic… they sure didn’t want to replace anything for any of us,they just discontinued the item and wrote us all off en masse

The problem I had at first was that the sandwich moved off center as I began rolling it thru so I had to straighten it out and it did it again. After a few times thru that stopped.

Thank you so much for being honest in your assessment and giving us a follow-up. I have never owned a SB machine, although I have some of their dies. If I’m spending my money on something, I expect it to work as promised. I shouldn’t be expected to “fix” their problems. I own 4 Sizzix machines and never “ seasoned” one. Love them all! Sorry, Spellbinders, my money will go to a different company.

I sent my machine back. No amount of “seasoning” helped.

I have not had much luck with there products. I have a spellbinders 6 and always had problems with it. I will not buy there machines. I have been crafting over 20 yrs and never had to season a machine!!! I have several different machines electric and manual and NEVER had to season a machine!!! I do not believe a machine needs that!! You should get a refund !!

Too many issues w/ SPB new machines. I will continue waiting for Gina K’s Intricut to come back in stock. The idea of being able to adjust pressure w/ out adding shims is genius!

So glad I saw this video before purchasing a machine from SB. I have an older Gemini Jr. & a new Empress which is awesome and I highly recommend. I got the Empress July 3, 2024 when it was $70 off. I’ve been wanting a manual machine for 3D embossing folders mainly and was just about to purchase a SB machine. That will not be happening after this fiasco w/ their new machines. It’s a pretty simple premise not to sell a machine that doesn’t work upon receipt. Let SB “season” it before selling if that’s how they want to make it. I will be waiting for the Gina K Intricut to come back in stock…I love the idea of being able to adjust the pressure to eliminate shims. Sorry Spellbinders but whoever decided it was okay to sell a machine that isn’t ready for sale due to seasoning issues made a big mistake.

Mine slips and it does not cut or cut and emboss dies properly. I have owned many manual and electric die-cutting machines and every one, except the Scout has worked right from the box perfectly. I'm going to contact Spellbinders because right now I have an overpriced paperweight.

Oh no! I have one one the way. :(

It looks to me like your tension is too loose. I think a shim or two might help. Just a thought.

Why not use a shim?

Hi. Just happened to see your video. I am not trying to bash on spellbinders, but the queen of cardmaking said that SB has great customer service. I couldn't disagree more. I have received 2 different Large die of the month kits, and both came without one of the layering dies in both, and 1 2d embossing folder that didn't emboss at all. Both occasions (for LDotM) they gave me a $5 voucher (which can NOT be used on any of the club kits) I continued to see the same dies being sold, which just upset me even more...are they selling them without the same pieces. Only once did they make it right on a stamp and die kit...only because EVERYONE did not receive the same missing item. I never did hear back regarding the embossing folder. I have since stopped purchasing from them. It's hard too, because they do have some great products, but i work hard for my money. I wish you all the luck with them and your scout. I will continue to make things with the products I have purchased from them.

I bought a previous version of the scout. It is 2.5 inches wide. It does work but I found it hard to use. It has a suction plate that does not work most of the time. So I have to hold the machine down while cranking. I thought it would be great for all the small dies and a handy travel machine. It finally broke and I vowed not to get another small die cut machine.

First, thank you for being honest about your experience. Second, I love Spellbinders dies, great quality and so many fantastic and diverse styles to choose from. Thirdly, I have had terrible experiences with several Spellbinder die cutting machines big and small and gave up on them long ago. I know Spellbinder machines are endorsed by some very popular crafty icons, but that was not always the case and based on their recommendations from before they decided to boycott Sizzix I bought a Big Shot and a Tag Along and have never looked back. They have lasted me years and keep going without issue. I hope you get resolution.

Now I don't feel like I'm crazy! I was so excited to finally receive my Scout and then so disappointed when it cut only a portion of the die. I built what would be a typical sandwhich of platform, cutting plate, paper, die and top plate and ran it through. What should haved cut did not. I then added one of the shims in the box and it cut. I did not think I should need a shim with the die I was using. Then I reached down and picked up my sidekick. plate, paper, die & plate. All fo the die cut perfectly. Not really sure if I expected too much as this is my first Spellbinders machine. I loved the idea of the 3 inch width. Just a scooch wider than the sidekick. Loved the smaller footprint. I have Big Shot, the much larger big shot that is manual and the latest Sizzix switch, Tim holtz vagabond and Sidekick. I am not new to cutting. I will stick with this Scout as I really want to love it as well. I also had to tape down my die as it slid like crazy.

You did exactly the same thing. Tried to figure out the issue. I could not the machine just would not cut. On my second email they told me to try it 10 times. I have used the machine more than that so I tried putting the die through ten times. It still did not cut. What a huge disappointment. I wish I had seen this before purchasing. I’m sending it back.

Interesting I too am having the same issue. I’m sorry that I didn’t see your video before buying. I’m having a terrible time with spellbinder sending me a return label. The first response was the same cookie cutter information that you are reading from your letter. I did exactly what they suggested to me, but it still would not work. I sent another email. They responded with the seasoning of the machine. They told me to keep on crafting. I still can not get the machine to cut even with thin paper such as copy paper. I even told them that I tried multiple dies simple and integrate dies. No response. So I tried using the exact dies with the exact paper in my Big Shot, my Gemini and even my mini Temu cutter. The dies worked in all of my machines, but the spellbinder scout. It is not the dies as suggested. I emailed again. I still have had no response. I was so very disappointed. I wanted a little machine with which to go to my weekly crops. I guess I will just have to keep hounding them.

I am so happy that i found your UA-cam channel as I have had the same issue. Like yourself, I am a big Spellbinders fan but I was so disappointed with this machine and will be sending it back. Good luck to you and thank you for posting.

OH MY GOSH!!!! I Just ran into this video. I have the same issue as you. My machine (the lilac) would not grab the plates and even worst, if I tried to include a die. I too got the same emails from spellbinders with the seasoning information and an attachment with the instructions to season the machine. I followed each step and the machine is still not working. I told them I wanted a replacement but they just sent me a return label. So im returning it. I too love spellbinders, so I just ordered the rose quartz from Scrapbook and hope it works this time. I too have a platinum 6 and love it. I think spellbinders is the best.

I had an issue with my Spellbinder Platium and I got in contact with them and was very disappointed. I have been crafting over 30 years and had a scrapbook store and use to carry spellbinder dies and loved them. Years later I saw their platium machine and loved that it did 8” paper.My son bought me it for Christmas and it never really performed like I thought it would but it did cut it just didn’t have the amount of pressure I thought it should. Fast forward a few years it got worse finally I looked inside where the rollers were and the plastic holding them was all cracked and broken. I don’t know how long it had been like that but the machine had just turned 5 but it must of been like that for at least a few years. They finally did offer for me to buy another machine at half off but being in Canada it would have ended up costing way too much buying it from them so l passed. I will never buy another machine from them because they don’t back their product and now I see I wasn’t wrong to think that.

Thank you, Rhonda, for the update. I appreciate you reading his response. I send you lots of good luck in that your next machine will be even better! (While I understand that a machine may need some seasoning, you did so much in the 1st video, it should be seasoned by now right!?) ❤

Just catching this video. So many videos out there with no issues. I have never heard of this type of issue and don’t know of anyone who has had it either. Over the years i have had 8 different machines and never had one that slipped or didn’t cut. So sorry some of you have had this issue.

Seasoning????? This is absolute BS… Buddy is blowing smoke where the sun doesn’t shine… Send it back and contact your bank to initiate a complaint to have your money returned, immediately.

Hi Rhonda, I think this machine is adorable, but I already have so many that I didn’t get. Now I’m glad I didn’t! Thanks for sharing the information for everyone that did buy it. ❤

Hi. I also have the scout but had no problems with it. I accidentally ran two sheets of 100# Cardstock thru to cut out a small die with intricate details…but I flipped the die with the cutting side up. It cut perfectly…but I was more surprised that there actually were two sheets of 100# Cardstock and the die cut thru them both. Tried again with two sheets of Cardstock and a different intricate die…cut came out perfectly. Hope that helps.
