I am almost 73 and new to die-cutting. Your videos are wonderful BECAUSE you speak slowly,make your instructions clear, do beautiful work, AND make it possible for EVERYONE to understand. TYVM!
I agree with another poster that your demonstration is one of the best. You are clear and concise and give us all the detailed facts, rather than talking about personal things or lingering on about unnecessary issues, as some demonstrators do. Thank you for the lovely, very informative video.
Not sure why this showed up on my suggested videos! But boy oh boy, I’m sure glad it did. Will be trying each of these. Thank you so much for the “easy to understand” lesson. ❤️❤️❤️
Excellent tutorial. Probably the clearest instructions, best video and easiest to understand of all the videos I've watched. No extra chatter, no background music. I loved it.
Thank you so much for the informative video and easy to understand instructions! I am just starting to use a Sizzix Big Shot and, thanks to you, I am mailing my first "fancy" card to one of my granddaughters today.. Thank you again!
Excellent tutorial! Thank you so much. Just ordered my Bigshot and, thanks to you, I think I have an idea of where to start. Like Aquahoma, I've watched many other videos and this is top-notch. You are clear, succinct and pleasant. I just subscribed!
EXCELLENT VIDEO. I watch a lot of how to videos and I must say YOU have one of the greatest informative how to videos I have found. THANK YOU for instructions and no music no fast forwarding no wasting of time You are in my favorites and I'll definitely keep you in my subscriptions.
Fab tutorial! Always wondered how to make a flip card without buying the expensive dies...your tutorial was very clear and much appreciated! Many thanks for all of the tips!
Love your beautiful easel card! I’m learning new techniques watching your videos. Things I’ve seen before but never got around to trying. Thanks so much for sharing!
Wow what a very informative tutorial! I am supposed to be tidying my craft area but am just watching your videos one after the other! IMO you are the best demonstrator xx
lol!! Freda, you are so like me!! Why tidy when you can create!! Sometimes I get in such a mess, I have no visible desk space and no visible floor space!! Thank you for you lovely words. xx
Wonderful cards! Thanks for sharing! It s always nice to have different shaped designs! MAY I GIVE YOU A TIP? I saw a you tube site that said something close to... you have to watch this! Important info. To change your die cutting. I think the ladies name was Linda Parks or Parker, something like that. She was eplaining how to cut the dies by placing fabric softener sheets. You can rub onto your dies, or place two sheets of fabric softener sheets folded in half , then place through the die cutting machine, the dies intricate or not come rght out. You can also place ones that you previously cut that you haven't gotten out yet. You can reuse!
Im so glad your video showed up as a suggestion to watch, Ive been using my dies alot more lately and these techniques are new to me. Thanks for your tutorial.
This is such a useful tutorial , just what I have been looking for since I don't have the Sizziz circle flip card die set and I can use just a round die to do this.
Great but with the last long strip you can't do it for as long as you want unless you have a very narrow cutting plate, since it shouldn't cut the last bit nor the beginning bit of the die if you want to make it really long. How do you solve that problem? Maybe use a cut to size piece of thick cardboard instead of your cutting plate which is too large?
Marking the die is genius. Now I see it, I wonder if it REALLY would cost that much more for the companies to do something more permanent as part of making the dies.
Is there a right way and a wrong way to place your plastic sheets down? Also, I just started using mine and it seems to make a popping sound that appears I'm breaking something. Is that normal? Thank you for the clear instructions.
Ho Louise. Popping sound is quite normal, just be careful not to force it through the mouth as the machine can break. No right/wrong way to use the machine, turn it everytime you use it, use both sides, and make sure you cut at different spots not just in the middle. It is also normal for the plates to get marked. Hope that hels. Happy crafting :)
Hi Collette. Just had a look on the Kaisercraft website and am very impressed with the layout and prices. As you demonstrate their brand do you have a webshop? Thank you for this tutorial its very informative, I have had my Big Shot for around 6 months but learning new things daily. Hugsxx
That is great. I do the same. I am fortunate to have the time and a little bit of spare cash once a month to spend. Oooppppsss I went shopping 2 days in advance this month. Hugs xxx
vous faites quoi des grosses chutes de papier dans lesquels vous decoupez des cercles et des frises ? je trouve qu'il y a du gaspillage , ajuster les dimensions entre le morceau et le motif serait plus judicieux ; pensez à l environnement , pauvre planète !!!!!

Collette Mitrega thanks I’ve learned so much of the basics from yr other videos esp the embossing top. and tail and the strip in the middle.
Yay, how awesome :) xx

Does this not stress the dies on the point where the partial cut is made?
I have never had a problem with it?
Good information TFS

vous faites quoi des grosses chutes de papier dans lesquels vous decoupez des cercles et des frises ? je trouve qu'il y a du gaspillage , ajuster les dimensions entre le morceau et le motif serait plus judicieux ; pensez à l environnement , pauvre planète !!!!!
Sierra0209 Yes I agree, normally I would center and re-use my offcuts, did not do it on this video. Thanks for your comment.
