Great tips! Just FYI, for those thinking about getting this particular die, it's discontinued sadly. I'm thinking about getting a Big Shot at some point because cutting out 50 petals or leaves at onces is not at the top of my fun list. lol I love that you included freezer paper too, that has made my cutting easier. I also have a Surebonder, but it isn't the smaller "specialty" one. I may need to get that one, the tip looks more precise. Thanks for the great tips!
I am so incredibly bummed that die is now discontinued! It definitely wasn’t when I filmed this plus is one of my absolute favorites! (Luckily I have 2! 😂) I love stream lining my cutting! Makes everything so much more efficient! And that small tip on the glue gun is amazing! You won’t regret it! Thanks for all the love!
@@TheHardwoodForest I know! It seems like that die is super versatile. I'm hoping they are maybe releasing a similar one since it was popular. I can't wait to try that smaller tip... sounds like a game changer, honestly! :)
Do you know how small/detailed the Cameo 4 cuts can get? I was considering buying one, but wasn't sure if it would only be useful for larger petals. For example, if you wanted to make little baby's breath petals with ridges at the top, could it do that? And thanks for the helpful videos!
I have not attempted to go very small. Mostly because I usually get some amount of error doing anything small and detailed that it’s not worth it. I could cut but hand by the time it mess up 3 times! 😂. The cameo also overcuts some pieces more then others and on small items that can really mess up your piece. I’ve had better luck with the circut maker 3. But their software sucks! I’m adding that to my list of videos to make is a side by side cutting competition! I realize this is not a helpful comment! 😂 but in closing if you want to use these machines for cutting simple shapes, some but minimal details, and prob stay in the 1x1” range you should be fine!
@@TheHardwoodForest Thanks so much for your reply! I had a feeling small and detailed would not work well on them. It seems like the manual die cutters would work better for that, but I'm not sure how hard/expensive it is to get custom dies made. That's a great video idea! Especially if you include small and/or detailed cuts!! Haha, it was definitely helpful, thanks so much :)
I love them so much! They are the home edit line from Walmart! Just search the home edit on Walmart.com and you will find them plus all there other goodies! @thehomeedit
I have a bunch of patterns for hand cutting or machine cutting on my website! www.thehardwoodforest.com For machines you can go die cut and snag a big shot off Amazon! For digital cutting I would recommend the cricut maker 3! Amazon or swing design is a great place to purchase
