    Morning here... I think the die with the small circles at the end and thumb notch, is for making slot openings for pockets... Enjoyed your making session thanks for the ideas x

    Gayle, thank you for inviting us into your craft room every single day. Please know that we don't mind when you go look for things. There are literally thousands of us who watch you every day of our lives BECAUSE you take us along with you with whatever you are doing any given day.
    Personally I would watch you look for things all day long & would laugh if you asked Mike,
    "Hey, can you bring me the labels I was cutting upstairs?! They're beside the sofa!"
    And then he'd reply, "Sure, but be ready to catch them when I toss them down the stairs, because I don't want to be on camera!"
    And then you'd rush to the stairs in a panic & holler, "Wait! My good fussy cutting scissors are in the bag! Don't you dare throw my good scissors!" 😂
    We love you just the way you are! 💜

    Gayle my sister in law told me a little trick on die cutting. She said to take a fabric softer sheet and rub it on the cutting side of die, that way the pieces fall out and don’t have to poke them. It works 89% of the time.

    GM Gayle. I think the way you do your videos is just fine, you can't please 100 percent all the time. What I hate is the fact that you share your time and knowledge and your not appreciated by the spoilers. The way I see it, they don't have to watch.
    I 💕💕💕 die cuts and the process. It's amazing 🤩. Your amazing too😊😊😊
    Did you know that I watch your videos multiple times??? And I'm sure I'm not alone.
    So have a great weekend 😀😀😀

The angle was fine we could see everything (I could) and when you look for something it’s like oh it’s fine I don’t have everything together when I’m working even Gayle needs to find something and you might find something even better then if you already had it out ( if that makes sense) and it shows us how someone else looks at things. Hope everyone have a wonderful weekend.

    I just love your videos, it’s like sitting with a friend and just having fun crafting. I just love that you are reminding us to use what we have and using the sisixx and all the dies cuts we have undoubtedly collected but forget to use. I had a thought about the first ones you shared from Amazon , the one you didn’t care for as much, the negative part can be trimmed and used as a pocket to slide a tag, picture or just tuck a small journaling card. Having said that you know what I’m going to buy next because I don’t have these and now I want to use them. Thank you Gayle , you are the best and my favorite journal creator.

    I love die cutting! These are some cool dies. I found a batch for super cheap at a thrift store and I’m having fun. I have a Gemini junior that works very well. I saw a tip video that suggested putting the die on the plate, cutting blades up, and putting the paper on top, instead of the other way around. She also suggested running the dies through the long way, rolling it through slowly,instead of the cross wise way.

    @cindymatthewsarrowdalearts6449 Місяць тому +7

    Hi, Gayle. The first die you showed needs to be cut twice, one on the "wrong" side of your paper, so you put them together and get flaps to seal all four sides - one being left unglued for use. I have a similar one and it took me a moment. :) All of the edges are meant, I think, to be cut from the insert (i.e. plain rectangle) piece. Try it and see! :)

    Hi gayle, the skinny one you don't care for is a slot pocket edger. The skinny piece is trash and the other is what you keep. Of you make two or 3 in a row it a pocket with slits to put tags or epemera in. You glue down the sides and bottom of the piece. Tim holtz slot pocket is similer. Have fun.

    Yup, I need a big old die cutting session, too. Someone may have already said ... the hold reinforcer die is stuck to the adapter plate. That is why the label didn't cut out properly as it was layered over top of the circle die. At the end of the video it was still stuck there. Fun video that encourages me to get cranking. 😂 ❤ Belinda xxx

    The edge die you don't like could be used to make slotted pockets with the piece it leaves not the piece that comes out ❤

    Hi again...mini pro tip...if you drop your cut out die with paper still attached lightly on your desk, most of the bits you have to poke out, will fall out by themselves...i learned that by accident😂❤❤❤

    I recently picked a sizzick big shot die cutter, directions and all but I know matter how hard and as many time I've tried I just cnt get it to work😢. It's either to thick or thin. I'd give anything to hear that nice crackling sound.
    Soo I live thru you❤❤❤
    And goodmorning!!

      Hi Shawn! There are different types of plates. Also the base for the plates should be able to have thin pieces removed for different types of dies and folders. Try searching UA-cam for some videos. That was how I learned because I went through the same thing as you. I think you can make a shim for the plates using cardstock or chipboard. That might help to cut too.

    The die you didn't like makes slits on your paper so you can slide in tags. The cut out isn't exciting.😊

    If the dies aren’t cleaned out they won’t work as well. I sometimes put waxed paper between die and paper and they come out easier on intricate dies

    Whenever I see machines like this I always wonder about how it came to be - did someone think to him/herself “I’d love to make a machine that cuts pretty stuff out” lol. There must have been a heap of prototypes before it went to market. I’m the same way about a bunch of other things, for instance, bread making. How did someone come up with all the ingredients needed, and measurements, how did they realize that yeast is needed, and how did they come up with how to make that yeast?

      I love your inquiring mind, Siri! So I have a theory about the die cutting machines. I wonder if they are an off shoot of the big die cutting machines used in machinery shops? Maybe a crafter said to a machinist, I’d love one of those to cut out pieces for my crafting? So, there ya go, there’s my “theory of the day”! 😂😂❤

    Thank you for this video, I do not own a diecutting machine and never have and watching you have to weed those pieces confirms that I’m never going to buy one, even if I find one on sale at the thrift store. I would like to emboss, but the die cutting is a big no for me and I watched this whole video even though I have no intention of buying one? 😊
