On the mini scoreboard, it's the same thing as the WRMK mini scoreboard only that one doesn't have the punch. I did get the exact same thing from Hobby Lobby though including the punch just in case someone wants 1 and doesn't care if it's cream instead of purple.
Love the box with the mini. I tried to get just the mini but they were sold out, so I bought the Anna Griffin mini. I really wanted the mini Gemini. I have the Gemini Jr. And Gemini Go. Waiting for my Anna Griffin mini. Hope I like it. Used to have a Diamond Press many years ago and it broke. Thanks for sharing and enjoy.
VianneyCreates ugh. I hear those get used up pretty quickly. I think I’m gonna wait till next month for the Mini Empress. I hear the mouth for that is also 4.5 inches wide.
I just finished filming the rest of my haul and I talk in there about the folder system and why I like it. Check it out, it will be in the "HSN craft day haul" video when it comes out.
Not sure how to use that combo cut/emboss folder. Tried using it alone and nothing happened. Was going to use with that purple shim and it hesitated and sounds like the mini might break. How do you use it? Thanks in advance... if you come back to your older posts.
Congrats on your win! I just got my box also. I did not get the mini Gemini, but I plan on getting the Mini Empress next month. I am looking forward to seeing some cards you make with the kit!
Great video! Can not wait to get mine tomorrow. Omg I ordered soooooo much this craft day all coming tomorrow and Wednesday. I spent today fiddling with the Santa deer and elf they are so stinking cute. Thank you for sharing with us all. 😀✂️🖌🔖
The "Santa's Grotto" set is so adorable!! The deer is my favorite, he's so flippin' cute!! Enjoy it all! I will do a review tutorial of the box and mini today, and will probably release the haul video today or tomorrow, too.
Looking forward to your next video showing how the items work. My order for the mini machine and box of items is on a delay shipping date. I am going to watch your future videos on this and decide if I want to cancel my order.
i put in an order to Crafter's Companion...do you know if they ever send you tracking information or is there a way on their website to check the status of your order? i so far have not seen anything on their website or in my email.
At times they will email about shipping (very rarely). You can look at your orders on their site, and under one of the tabs it will say "Shipments" or "Shipping," I don't remember...but I feel like they hardly ever update that info!! I'm sorry, they have always had pretty bad communication as far as shipping is involved.
I would be so exited to get a box like that. I don’t have any card making stuff, so this would be awesome. I seriously need to find a side hustle so I can buy crafty(and nail) stuff. I’m already exited for the next video
Hi, neither of these items are available yet on CC's website, but I think they're "launching" the box in the UK on the 22nd...so they should have these things available after that. The box is still available on HSN with or without auto delivery, but no mini.
Mine arrives tomorrow...gemini go wednesday...no mini but i will check out the AG mini great video!! Now i have to make room for all this...still excited!!
You know, this will make my second score board...i really should have gotten the Martha Stewart one when i was in Michaels the other day. I want one that goes to 12 inches...if i buy another one that will make 3 😔...i don't like when my paper is 12 x 12 and my scoreboard isnt. Oh well, to amazon i go😂😂
You are so kind, Patsy! The review and card tutorial using the mini and the compendium is almost done uploading...should be up probably within the next 20 minutes!
Looking forward to using mini video tomorrow & how the mini Gemini and if you decide to keep? Besides Diamond Press new cutting machine, AG presented 1st preview on her blog for next HSN craft event and giving away her new small empress for next 4 weeks! Have fun!
I mentioned the new mini Empress in this video, I know I talk a lot it's easy to miss some content! LOL!! It's adorable, I think I'll be buying it, too.
That's so tough. TBH, I use my Gemini Junior pretty much every day...it's my go to. I do love the little Diamond press, but of course, it's only for small dies. I am curious of their larger machine when it comes out. I think I'll like it.
Thanks for the tutorial I don't know if you know but Sara have mention her items are going up starting next year because of the laws Sara items use to be at Joanna but that has stop so I am going to check out Anna new die cutting machine I am waiting to see what hers is about. Thanks for your tutorial love them
I can imagine, and who knows what will happen after Brexit (?). I wish them luck and that they're able to keep the amazing prices they sometimes offer.
Anna also has a mini that is a mini cuttlebug for a lack of another way to describe it. I bought it a couple years ago and I use it almost daily. It cuts and embosses. And fits in the palm of your hand. Let me see if I can get a picture. I can’t get it to load sorry. Anna announced in her preview for Nov that she is premiering the Empress mini. Maybe go to You Tube and search for it. I enjoy your site. Thanks!
Oj, that's right. It's a "sidekick" type mini. Totally forgot about that. Still not sure what the gal was referring to, but I look forward to seeing the new mini EMpress next month!
Great video!!! Too expensive for me, at the time. I sure did enjoy watching you unveil each compartment! I still wish I had purchased it, nevertheless...
It was nice looking at all the stuff included in the box. However, I agree, it was a little pricey even with the machine. Looking forward to tomorrow’s video.
Interesting, mine came yesterday late in the evening as well. I love all the things that were included even though I didn’t need any of it 😂 The tri level box is so cool though.
Girl! I'm pretty sure that Sara made a deal with the devil to make us find the products irresistible! LOL! I, too, need nothing from this box, but I just can't resist. It was kind of fun having the box splayed out in front of me, though!!
I order some items and I haven't received my items net I live in California and it is ship from here. I order some items before the day of the show and the day of the show still waiting
Really? That's a bummer. I always get my stuff pretty quickly. I just finished doing my haul video, I'll probably release it tomorrow. I'm leaving room today for the review of the mini and compendium.
I like the crafters companion die cutting machine cuz it has a wide opening and just in case electricity turns off you still have something to cut with. but might buy the Anna Griffin one depends on the price 😂
It really does! Her new mini EMpress is adorable, btu as it is I hardly ever use the Gemini Go. I don't know that I need yet another mini machine, that might cost over $100.
I haven't used my Gemini Go since I reviewed it, I stick to the Gemini Junior. I hear ya. I'll still make a review video this morning of all of this, and go from there.
This would be nice for someone who is starting in paper craft and to grow from there.
Even better now that it is half price on Crafter's Companion's website!! LOL!!
On the mini scoreboard, it's the same thing as the WRMK mini scoreboard only that one doesn't have the punch. I did get the exact same thing from Hobby Lobby though including the punch just in case someone wants 1 and doesn't care if it's cream instead of purple.

The new Anna Griffin Mini empress? Isi it already available? It's adorable!
Wow, such a cool box! I didn't know the Gemini made a mini, also very cool! TFS!
The mini was a "world launch." So, it's a brand new thing for them. TY!
Hi - Any idea what the thickest card gsm can be used with the Gemini Mini?
Thanks in advance!
Such a nice box of goodies! Are the frames paintable? The small score board looks just like the Martha Stewart mini score board.
Supposedly the frames are paintable, I hope so...bc the colors are way too bright.
Wow !! What a wonderful blessing you have received !! So happy for you !!!
TY so very much!
Is the new diamond press, which is larger, also use a folder system?
Yes, still a folder system.
VianneyCreates ugh. I hear those get used up pretty quickly. I think I’m gonna wait till next month for the Mini Empress. I hear the mouth for that is also 4.5 inches wide.

What i remember from the mini is that it should be used alone, maybe with the purple shim. So you still have your manual?
Thank you for your informative review. I just received my box AS without the Gemini mini, but I have not used it yet.
I hope you get a chance to try it soon! TY!
Congrats on your win! I just got my box also. I did not get the mini Gemini, but I plan on getting the Mini Empress next month. I am looking forward to seeing some cards you make with the kit!
TY! I just wrapped up my review tutorial of these things, and I like them but am still on the fence. (;
Great video! Can not wait to get mine tomorrow. Omg I ordered soooooo much this craft day all coming tomorrow and Wednesday. I spent today fiddling with the Santa deer and elf they are so stinking cute. Thank you for sharing with us all. 😀✂️🖌🔖

You are so kind, TY!! I'll be working on it this morning.
Anna also has a mini crank. Hsn had it for awhile, it was 59.00. It’s really cute too. But aside from that I don’t know much about it.
I always forget about that one, it's basically like the Sizzix Sidekick. I love her color theme.
I have looked for that on crafters companion site since Sara did a video on it 😕 but could not find it gutted
Hi, neither of these items are available yet on CC's website, but I think they're "launching" the box in the UK on the 22nd...so they should have these things available after that. The box is still available on HSN with or without auto delivery, but no mini.
@@VianneyCreates thank you 😊
Does anyone know how much the monthly box costs from Crafters Companion ?
Mine arrives tomorrow...gemini go wednesday...no mini but i will check out the AG mini great video!! Now i have to make room for all this...still excited!!
I think the AG mini will be greta! It's so cute!!! (:
You know, this will make my second score board...i really should have gotten the Martha Stewart one when i was in Michaels the other day. I want one that goes to 12 inches...if i buy another one that will make 3 😔...i don't like when my paper is 12 x 12 and my scoreboard isnt. Oh well, to amazon i go😂😂
I feel ya! Oops on my typo earlier...*great not greta!
I watched this late at night and love the unboxing I WILL BE WAITING FOR YOUR NEXT VIDEO-hugs
You are so kind, Patsy! The review and card tutorial using the mini and the compendium is almost done uploading...should be up probably within the next 20 minutes!
Fun unboxing, TFS💕
I really enjoyed it! TY!
Looking forward to using mini video tomorrow & how the mini Gemini and if you decide to keep?
Besides Diamond Press new cutting machine, AG presented 1st preview on her blog for next
HSN craft event and giving away her new small empress for next 4 weeks! Have fun!

Great job!🤗🤗🤗
TY!
Looking forward to your reviews. Yay, I want to see the mini for sure. Love your videos.
Thank you so much, I just released the video...it's a whopper coming in at about 50 minutes! LOL! (:
VianneyCreates I watched it. Was excited that you had it up.
Yeah!!! I loved mine, got it yesterday tfs
I love to hear what people think about their items, thanks for sharing!
I thinking about ordering either the c c or Anna machine right now I'm only using a big shot do you recommend one of the others
That's so tough. TBH, I use my Gemini Junior pretty much every day...it's my go to. I do love the little Diamond press, but of course, it's only for small dies. I am curious of their larger machine when it comes out. I think I'll like it.

Christmas in October!!!! 😍 Can’t wait to see your next videos using the new toys 🙌
It really was! It's a fun box, now to see if I'm going to keep it. I'll make a review tutorial this morning.
Great video!!! Too expensive for me, at the time. I sure did enjoy watching you unveil each compartment! I still wish I had purchased it, nevertheless...
They did want quite a bit for it! I know CC has brought it to their site for less, but the mini is seperate. TYSM!!
It was nice looking at all the stuff included in the box. However, I agree, it was a little pricey even with the machine. Looking forward to tomorrow’s video.
TY! This video was actually released yesterday and the review video actually using the products was just released. It's a long one! LOL!
VianneyCreates I saw the review video was up but was too lazy to update my comment. Thanks
LOL!! Got ya! TY!
Bunny C monthly payments the way to go♥️♥️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽♥️♥️

I'm a beginner, should consider this ....
I order some items and I haven't received my items net I live in California and it is ship from here. I order some items before the day of the show and the day of the show still waiting

Gaudy resin frames....but I agree too much pastel and butterflies nice dies though
Radio London OMG, you nailed it!! LOL!
A New Diamond Press? An AG mini?? Ohhhh geez!!! Wonder if i can borrow on next months allowance😞😂😂😂
LOL!! IKR?!
I'm getting the mini empress. Glad I did not buy this one. Great concept I'm pretty sure I can learn so much but I have to many stuff 😅
The mini Empress is so adorable!!!
I say return the whole thing and wait for the Anna Griffin mini empress. The Gemini Go is a nice machine but very slow, that's what I don't like.
I haven't used my Gemini Go since I reviewed it, I stick to the Gemini Junior. I hear ya. I'll still make a review video this morning of all of this, and go from there.
❤❤❤ finally first ?
You sure are!!
First time being first 🙋
