Jennifer, this video is so great! Thank you so much! It shows so many things you can do with the machine! We loved being able to have the machine made for us in our colors with all the features we wanted! Thank you for showing our lovely crafty fans how easy it is to use. And thanks so much to everyone who made such nice comments. It's a huge investment for a small company to have a machine custom made the reception has been incredible! Although the switches and dial are not unique to just this machine, we love that the machine is in our custom colors, that we were able to add extras like the huge die set, and that you can speak to a customer service rep here at our facility any time you need help. Thanks for supporting small business with your talent, Jennifer! You're amazing!
Gina, I do hate to horn in here, but I just had to butt in long enough to tell you one thing: I started watching the video before looking at the comments and when Jennifer said that she had instructions on her website but the manual is highly detailed and has all the information they will need, this was my thought: "Of course it is. It's Gina K. I'll bet the manual is detailed, informative and concise because she's thoroughly tested everything. I discovered you and Jennifer 12-15 yrs ago and you are both so relentless in your pursuit of excellence and yet still without equal when it comes to showing the utterly untalented among us how to make beautiful things. I am quite certain that I am not alone in this opinion. Whenever I hear the name Gina K or Jennifer McGuire I know, without question, that it's Quality. Thank you for that, and for always working to help others to make our worlds more colorful and help us to build confidence in our own talents thru your rock solid teaching. THANK YOU. :)
People are having to buy this machine from other sources because you never have them in stock. I would pay more for yours because it's YOU and because I prefer your color. It matches my art studio. Please get more in stock.
Now THIS new product is truly a game changer! All thickness adjustments built into the machine…no more complicated sandwiches, shims, plates, etc.to keep track of and store. Built-in storage, suction cups to hold the machine in place…and it works with other systems! Gina and her team really took their time and thought this through to pack in as many useful features as possible and to address some real pain points of die cutting machines.
This new machine looks a lot like my We R memory keepers-Evolution Advanced. I got it at an online auction, it was never opened but it is an older die cut machine. All the info you showed me applies to my machine, down to the rubber mat it came with. Thanks, now I know how to better use it!
Yes the wrmk evo adv is identical to this one and I loved it and through two of them during a 4 yr span (had the electric motor attachment) but the internal gears for the adjustment dial locked and stayed locked in 1 position. The “A” plate was the best as you could die cut and emboss in one pass! I NEVER GOT WARPING ON ANY PLATES. But eventually got a Gemini junior which cuts great but I’ve always hated using “sandwiches” so maybe I will try this brand.
I was wondering about whether they’d eventually release a magnetic plate to use on the bottom! Good to know there’s already a tool out there with the magnetic plate option! 😊
@@donnadrazkowski411if it doesn't exceed the width of the opening, I don't see why it would work. You could always return the magnetic mat if it doesn't work out.
I trust that your review is accurate,but I also know you are great friends with Gina K which is understandable you wouldn’t be negative, this is a very informative video thank u
I just got my Intri-cut today and the first thing I did was come back to this video and I practiced along with your video. So GREAT! Thank you for all the fantastic information😁
This looks exactly like my first die machine We R Memory Keepers Evolution - which I still own as it came with its own letterpress accessory and can also manage the old Sizzix bigz dies.
Thank you again Jennifer for showing all the options, pros and cons of so many toys available to us out there. I love your comparison to shoes, yes we all have different needs and preferences and you make it easier to make those decisions.
I really enjoy your videos and creativity, Jennifer. Obviously you’re free to do whatever you want but I am pointing out that I haven’t seen you use this product since this video, which makes it seem like this was just a plug for your friend rather than a real review… not to mention the minor controversy behind this “not-so-new” concept. I’ll still watch your videos because you’re really talented but I suppose I should do more research now than just relying on your endorsement
As always, you are a great teacher and answered every question -some before I knew I had them! Did not know about Gina K's machine and got here doing search for Bira. Was glad to see the very same machine because Gina K seems far more motivated about it. Thanks for the great video and accessory/supply resource.
I've been using my Bira branded one for years, but this is the BEST video I've seen on how to use it, thank you!! I will be saving this for future reference ❤
Just watched Gina….as you fold down the arms, LOCK IN the arms….it locks the bottom suction cups into place so it won’t slide on all work surfaces, not just a glass surface. I felt this was key in using the new machine correctly. Thank you for all the additional trials and learning curves you shared with us. What a truly versatile machine…and you figured out the details for us! Thank you 🙏 🥰 ❤️
When you fold out the arms that suctions the machine to whatever surface it’s on. You do not have to lock the supports in place for the suction to work. I don’t own this machine, but I watched Jennifer‘s video as well as a couple of others and they all said the same. No need to lock the sides in place. I suppose some may not work properly. It would be hard to understand if they were all three wrong.
Your demos are the best - and they always set off fireworks in my brain! i come away with all kinds of sparkling creative possibilities. The die cut machine is fascinating, but those snowflakes are simply amazing! I just ordered a Fuse, based on one of your videos. If I'd known about those full sheets, I would have ordered some at the same time.
This looks almost exactly like the We R Memory Keepers Evolution Advanced which they stopped making and I LOVED! I’ve never liked sandwiches and I’ve missed this type of die cut/embossing machine.
In the words of Gina K, you knocked it out of the park with this one, Jennifer! Very clear direction and can’t wait to get my hands on one of these! Thank you for another awesome video, Jennifer!
wrmk evolution advanced is identical to this one and came out about 9 yrs ago and I loved it and through two of them during a 4 yr span (had the electric motor attachment) but the internal gears for the adjustment dial locked and stayed locked in 1 position. The “A” plate was the best as you could die cut and emboss in one pass! I NEVER GOT WARPING ON ANY PLATES. But eventually got a Gemini junior which cuts great but I’ve always hated using “sandwiches” so maybe I will try this brand.
Looks just like my Sunlit, only mine bought some years ago has orange and I love it! I use it for so much creativity including prints. I even had an extra platform cut with the same thickness but longer: long, skinny prints! Love your channel! ❤
I hope the Intri-Cut will be stocked in other countries in time so we can purchase it without the hefty shipping necessary from the US (I live in Australia). The sandwiches when using a die cut machine are always a challenge for me so the idea of no more worrying about this just makes me happy!
i'm in the UK, searched for it here & found this Artemio Happy Cut A4 machine (Gina''s made a smaller version). same plates, everything but A5 size. it's 6 years old.
A few months ago I purchased a Bira Craft machine on Amason that looks very similar to this Gina K machine. I'm really happy with it, and I'm even happier to have this video to show me the right way to use it. It embosses really nicely. I die cut just this morning for the first time and on one run through I goofed and had the sandwich wrong and cut into the platform. Yikes. At least it was only once and now I know there are a few ways to build the sandwich and get the correct side up.
I'm so glad to see Gina K adding this machine to her product line. I have a similar machine and love it! I hope many people will order this because I think it eliminates almost all of the issues with choosing the right sandwiches. I
Yes, this machine is exactly like the Bira machine found on Amz (which I have and enjoy) and also the one used by Close To My Heart. It's a nice option. Prices vary depending on where you order from.
turns out there are several adjustable die cut machines out there. i had never used one. not sure if they all work the same... i just know this one works great for me! :) my guess is there is one manufacturer making these machines.

Thanks for the wonderful step through both of Gina's newest machines. Lovely to see them put through their paces! You always teach so wonderfully, even sharing your 'mistake' with the polyglaze on your carrier sheet. Great to see it all xoxo
The machine is a lot like the original cuttlebug, with a few modifications. The suction and the folding sides are what kept me using my cuttlebug long after others were using other machines. As much as I like the Big Shot, I still have my cuttlebug and use it when I'm going to crops because it takes up much less space. I love the flexibility of Gina K's machine! The pressure dials are genius!
Рік тому+4
I have had this exact machine in pink for a number of years. I love it and keep it set for use with the GoPress and Foil machine.
Another brilliant product from Gina!! I love the idea of using the same plates for die cutting and embossing!! Thanks Jennifer for demonstrating this beautiful machine!! 😍
This was so helpful. The instructions that comes with it shows the 3D folders being used without the cutting mat. The folder I was using would not work even on the tightest setting. Your explanation of thickness variations by brands made all the difference. I needed to use the cutting mat and then it to a looseness of 4 and then it worked beautifully.
0:43 tis stays true even at larger levels. I currently run proofing deliveries between large printing companies because one would have cutters/tools/machines the others don’t. I’m new to this so I was legit impressed by this.
Basically an upgraded version of WeR Memory Keepers Evolution Advanced machine, which has been my favorite go to. You just can’t find the replacement plates for it or their mini one either.
Informative and inspiring. Thank you for sharing your time, effort and creativity in showcasing this wonderful, new and versatile die cutting machine. When doing lots of cutting and embossing type techniques, plate changing becomes tedious and sometimes frustrating. What a welcome addition for paper crafters.
I have had my machine for 3+ years from Close To My Heart.❤️ Love this Love the versatility and the dial options. Helps with all the different thicknesses that dies and embossing folders come in from all the different vendors/ brands.
I'm thrilled that I can now foil with a laminator - which I already have! I have put off getting the foiling items, but this is a much lower investment if I can use Gina's paper and my laminator. Thank you for showing BOTH ways!
Your video taking me through this machine was excellent! So many great tips and since I don’t have a machine with a wider mouth, this just might be the one for me. Thanx for the tour!
This was so informative. I have an electric Empress and another big shot but I’m looking for something for my mom that’s less tedious. And I think you gave me my answer. I really appreciate your diligent effort in teaching at a good pace, but not leaving anybody behind I think it’s just amazing and I usually don’t gush but good job I really really appreciate it.🎉
What a fantastic machine. It has so many great features! I was looking into an electronic machine, because I have issues with my arms, hands, and shoulders, but now there's this! I was wondering how easy this is to crank, especially since I know you have shoulder issues.
Great machine is just like the we r memory keepers old machine the Evolution. I have one myself and have always thought it a great machine. I wonder if Gina will come out with a motor for it as well, with the detachable handle.
I too picked up a (barely) used We R Memory Keepers die cutting machine as a back up bc my old Big Shot was failing. This has some of the same features and I would definitely buy it when my WRMK machine fails. And since I’m a ‘rule breaker’, I found using a piece of clear vinyl like ppl used to cover their ‘good sofas’ with between my dies and top plate has done wonders to save my plates. It doesn’t work with every die, but it does with 90% of them. Love your product review videos! Helps to understand exactly how things work in the real world before investing money in more ‘product’.
What a game changer!!! Wow! I can’t afford it right now it am hoping to be able to snag it up in the future. Thanks to you for taking the time to try it and show us how to properly use it. What a great product! 👍🌟
This is almost exactly like the old WRMK Evolution cutting machine… which had a electric option in place of the hand crank. Wonder if GinaK will copy that too?? It’s quite useful.
Thanks so much for such an informative video. I tried to buy the machine but it was sold out where I checked. This seems so much easier and less things that need replacing.
Oh my gosh, I love this. Definitely going on my Christmas list. I hope we can get it in the UK by then. Thank you for demonstrating so beautifully Jennifer.
I love this, I get so frustrated trying to figure out sandwiches for different cuts and embossing. I just ordered this from the company, free shipping and 10 percent off. That's $20 cheaper than Amazon or Walmart. I can't wait to get this. Thank you for your great review!!
I have to admit that I am really tempted to get this if/when I need to replace my original machine (hopefully not for a while). I started with the evolution adjustable machine, and was a little sad to see that there isn't anything similar on the market anymore. I should have known to just be patient. This is so much more intuitive. Bonus points because this one has your walkthrough of the machine. :P
Thanks for this video. I actually bought a Bira die cut machine off the big A some years back when I first got into embossing so it's nice to see someone branded it in a more familiar name so many others can benefit from the great features.
great video ,Jen....I had bought we sre memory makers die cutting machine years back based on this same dial idea, I dint like it, cut the dies badly and I sent it back, your video proves they must have did some work on thaat basic idea!!! great ideas...not sure if ill go for it yet, since im still making payments on my gemini 2, but i like the size of the machine for glimmer press and letter press since I have both of them and the fuse... YOUR snowflakes are adorable!!, i bought the white glaze last nite!!!
Thank you so much for this video! I love the successes and the mistakes. Love this machine that I am not allowed to open until Christmas morning. But I can still watch inspiring videos like this! Merry Christmas to you and your family. We are all so blessed to have you inspire us each time you share your talents in a live or a video. Thanks again! 🙂❤💚🎄🎅
Oh wow.... This die cut machine... It's the answer to many of the doubts i have, buying a new one. This machine has so many possibilities that I want/dream a machine to have. Amazing!!! And thank you for demonstration Jennifer. Also the polyglaze panels, look like a must have 👌❤
Great tutorial…I have the WRMK advanced evolution which I haven’t used in yrs but loved it cuz my original plates never warped…time to pull it out again. Gina’s machine looks awesome
Jennifer your video is amazing for me that you are sharing all of your knowledge to make my creations simpler! Thank You so much. Now I will need to purchase the black soft pad to make impressions. What a fantastic way to utilize all of my tools! The soft Stencils that I color can now make impressions!!! I'm Grateful that you are part of the Gina K. Team! XOXOXOXO
I've just recently started card making and bought the Platinum 6. I have been considering buying this machine because I bought a few embossing folders that I've had a really hard time with. Based on your demonstration it looks like it might be a worthwhile investment and would end any confusion with the embossing folders. Thank you!
Wow! I learned so much and this sounds like a boon to someone like me, still using my trusty but discontinued Cuttlebug. My experiment with a pricey, highly recommended electric machine was a disaster with broken and/or uselessly warped plates. I don't use it. And I have a mini/table top Tim Holtz die cutter, limited as to size but extemely handy for small things. I'm afraid to even try 3D folders in the Cuttlebug -- but I drool over them. Thank you for the time you put into these valuable videos, particularly this which sounds like it would be extemely versatile and almost idiot-proof..
Love this idea reinvented …I’m just hoping that a electric feed one is invented that will self adjust so you just need 1 platform die or folder and a paper 🥰 Go for it Jennifer you can do it!
Love this machine.. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 😍 but I can’t buy yet due to budget. One day & hopefully get more stock if this sold out. Question: can this machine runs wool felt with a die cuts? Or do you have to use the shim to get the good impression(holes) to make stitches (like embroidery). Thank you for sharing! Hope this helps and hopefully to hear about the wool felt to run through this machine. Thank you! ☺️
Was wondering who and when this machine would be made again! I love my WRMK Evolution Advanced and have been using it for more than 12 years. Now I'll be able to get replacement pads and platforms easier! Gina's a smart cookie, I wish I had been able to buy the design from WRMK, it's truly always been a winner 👍🏻😎 I even have the letterpress kit and the magnetic platform etc, and they still work perfect - smart, very smart! ❤
I really can't stand trying to find the right plates/thicknesses I need in which machine to emboss with dies or folders. I wonder if this is usable for hot foiling too? I think this is worthwhile to sit right next to my Empress, it's unique and solves and issue!
Absolutley amazing...beyond Awesome... Gina K is a Rock Star....and your easy to understand tutorial I will watch over and over.....You are the best! Thanks ever so much.
Jennifer, this video is so great! Thank you so much! It shows so many things you can do with the machine!

Exactly what I thought. I loved my WRMK machine til I couldn't adjust it
I have it also and it's exactly like Gina K's new one. I love it! ❤️
I've been using my evolution advanced since 2016 and I love it 🖤
Yes the wrmk evo adv is identical to this one and I loved it and through two of them during a 4 yr span (had the electric motor attachment) but the internal gears for the adjustment dial locked and stayed locked in 1 position. The “A” plate was the best as you could die cut and emboss in one pass! I NEVER GOT WARPING ON ANY PLATES. But eventually got a Gemini junior which cuts great but I’ve always hated using “sandwiches” so maybe I will try this brand.
I have the WRMK one too. Not my favorite but I do use it for certain dies.
This is identical to the Bira Craft I've been using and I love it. I bought the magnetic mat and have pretty much eliminated the use of tape.
Do you think the Bira magnetic mat can be used in the IntriCut? Which plate would it replace? Thanks
Considering options! Do you have any opinion as to how your Bira compares to the Gina K quality wise? Thank you!
I was wondering about whether they’d eventually release a magnetic plate to use on the bottom! Good to know there’s already a tool out there with the magnetic plate option! 😊
@@donnacarraway9182 Exactly the same machine except for the color and the price!
@@donnadrazkowski411if it doesn't exceed the width of the opening, I don't see why it would work. You could always return the magnetic mat if it doesn't work out.

Australia here also. I agree about shipping costs as well as availability here in Australia.
The Close to my heart is the same in Aus. Craftonline also sell the 9” Poppycraft version for $150 aud
i'm in the UK, searched for it here & found this Artemio Happy Cut A4 machine (Gina''s made a smaller version). same plates, everything but A5 size. it's 6 years old.
@@auzzygirl8175... me too, another Aussie here. I 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
I cannot thank you enough. I have arthritis and this looks like it is pretty simple to turn. Plus, you demmo'd to a newbie to die cutting! THANK YOU!

I use sizzix plates as a replacement for my Evolution advanced- and I love it, it's amazing 🖤
Great video thank you. Wasn't aware Gina had one. Have you done a Spellbinder video recently? I would love to see these two compared. Thank you.
Thank you for showing the new machines and how they work. I will stick with what I have. When they break, I might like this kind of machine.

Jennifer, your nails and polish are "extra" beautiful today! Such a pretty color for you.
Thank you for this review. Merry Christmas!
What great features…I love it!
Excellent demo of Gina K’s new design!! It looks fantastic!!
Jennifer, thank you so much; you covered all my questions and this machine is an answer to prayer!
I have had my machine for 3+ years from Close To My Heart.❤️ Love this
Love the versatility and the dial options. Helps with all the different thicknesses that dies and embossing folders come in from all the different vendors/ brands.
I'm thrilled that I can now foil with a laminator - which I already have! I have put off getting the foiling items, but this is a much lower investment if I can use Gina's paper and my laminator. Thank you for showing BOTH ways!
Your video taking me through this machine was excellent! So many great tips and since I don’t have a machine with a wider mouth, this just might be the one for me. Thanx for the tour!
What a versatile machine! Wow! Hope they get back in stock soon.❤
This was so informative. I have an electric Empress and another big shot but I’m looking for something for my mom that’s less tedious. And I think you gave me my answer. I really appreciate your diligent effort in teaching at a good pace, but not leaving anybody behind I think it’s just amazing and I usually don’t gush but good job I really really appreciate it.🎉
Great idea, always wondered why no one every came up with an "all in one" machine. Loved the video.
What a fantastic machine. It has so many great features! I was looking into an electronic machine, because I have issues with my arms, hands, and shoulders, but now there's this! I was wondering how easy this is to crank, especially since I know you have shoulder issues.
Thanks for your thorough review. It really helps to know someone is there to help us.
Great machine is just like the we r memory keepers old machine the Evolution. I have one myself and have always thought it a great machine. I wonder if Gina will come out with a motor for it as well, with the detachable handle.
Wow! Pretty fantastic machine! Thank you for the introduction Jennifer.
Love this new machine. What about using removing folders that also use the die cutting tool within the folder? Did I miss it and I need to rewatch?
I too picked up a (barely) used We R Memory Keepers die cutting machine as a back up bc my old Big Shot was failing. This has some of the same features and I would definitely buy it when my WRMK machine fails. And since I’m a ‘rule breaker’, I found using a piece of clear vinyl like ppl used to cover their ‘good sofas’ with between my dies and top plate has done wonders to save my plates. It doesn’t work with every die, but it does with 90% of them. Love your product review videos! Helps to understand exactly how things work in the real world before investing money in more ‘product’.
Unbelievable teaching. You are amazing in so many ways but this tops them all. Your intro was priceless. Thanks
What a game changer!!! Wow! I can’t afford it right now it am hoping to be able to snag it up in the future. Thanks to you for taking the time to try it and show us how to properly use it. What a great product! 👍🌟
I appreciate your review and approach to the comments. So much class!
Awesome. I hope we will get them asap here just like the states
This is almost exactly like the old WRMK Evolution cutting machine… which had a electric option in place of the hand crank. Wonder if GinaK will copy that too?? It’s quite useful.
Thanks so much for such an informative video. I tried to buy the machine but it was sold out where I checked. This seems so much easier and less things that need replacing.
Oh my gosh, I love this. Definitely going on my Christmas list. I hope we can get it in the UK by then. Thank you for demonstrating so beautifully Jennifer.
This looks terrific! I have arthritis so a crank is much harder for me. I hope Gina will come out with an electric version
I love this, I get so frustrated trying to figure out sandwiches for different cuts and embossing. I just ordered this from the company, free shipping and 10 percent off. That's $20 cheaper than Amazon or Walmart.
I can't wait to get this. Thank you for your great review!!
I have to admit that I am really tempted to get this if/when I need to replace my original machine (hopefully not for a while). I started with the evolution adjustable machine, and was a little sad to see that there isn't anything similar on the market anymore. I should have known to just be patient. This is so much more intuitive. Bonus points because this one has your walkthrough of the machine. :P
This product is brilliant!! Need to buy this. From Singapore
Lynn Le Bel Fantastic demo Jennifer!!
an excellent video about the machine. It looks' to be a winner....thanks for all the explanations...I really enjoyed learning about it. pat
Thanks for this video. I actually bought a Bira die cut machine off the big A some years back when I first got into embossing so it's nice to see someone branded it in a more familiar name so many others can benefit from the great features.
I also have a Bira and other than the color it does everything Gina's machine does, even the instructions for use are the same. Love mine!
great video ,Jen....I had bought we sre memory makers die cutting machine years back based on this same dial idea, I dint like it, cut the dies badly and I sent it back, your video proves they must have did some work on thaat basic idea!!! great ideas...not sure if ill go for it yet, since im still making payments on my gemini 2, but i like the size of the machine for glimmer press and letter press since I have both of them and the fuse... YOUR snowflakes are adorable!!, i bought the white glaze last nite!!!
I think i would want to do the foiling back and forth with different color combos all day long! It looks like so much fun!😊❤
Thank you so much for this video! I love the successes and the mistakes. Love this machine that I am not allowed to open until Christmas morning. But I can still watch inspiring videos like this! Merry Christmas to you and your family. We are all so blessed to have you inspire us each time you share your talents in a live or a video. Thanks again! 🙂❤💚🎄🎅
Jennifer, what a great review. Perhaps I will consider it when my current machine no longer works well. Thanks so much. ❤😊
Oh wow.... This die cut machine... It's the answer to many of the doubts i have, buying a new one. This machine has so many possibilities that I want/dream a machine to have.
Amazing!!! And thank you for demonstration Jennifer. Also the polyglaze panels, look like a must have 👌❤
Great tutorial…I have the WRMK advanced evolution which I haven’t used in yrs but loved it cuz my original plates never warped…time to pull it out again. Gina’s machine looks awesome
Would the silicone mat from Spellbinders work with this machine? Thanks Jennifer! This is great.
What a brilliant idea for this machine
Thank you Jen for this wonderful, informative video. This is great❤
Jennifer your video is amazing for me that you are sharing all of your knowledge to make my creations simpler! Thank You so much. Now I will need to purchase the black soft pad to make impressions. What a fantastic way to utilize all of my tools! The soft Stencils that I color can now make impressions!!! I'm Grateful that you are part of the Gina K. Team! XOXOXOXO
I've just recently started card making and bought the Platinum 6. I have been considering buying this machine because I bought a few embossing folders that I've had a really hard time with. Based on your demonstration it looks like it might be a worthwhile investment and would end any confusion with the embossing folders. Thank you!
Wow! I learned so much and this sounds like a boon to someone like me, still using my trusty but discontinued Cuttlebug. My experiment with a pricey, highly recommended electric machine was a disaster with broken and/or uselessly warped plates. I don't use it. And I have a mini/table top Tim Holtz die cutter, limited as to size but extemely handy for small things. I'm afraid to even try 3D folders in the Cuttlebug -- but I drool over them. Thank you for the time you put into these valuable videos, particularly this which sounds like it would be extemely versatile and almost idiot-proof..
Love this idea reinvented …I’m just hoping that a electric feed one is invented that will self adjust so you just need 1 platform die or folder and a paper 🥰 Go for it Jennifer you can do it!
Love this machine.. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 😍 but I can’t buy yet due to budget. One day & hopefully get more stock if this sold out.
Question: can this machine runs wool felt with a die cuts? Or do you have to use the shim to get the good impression(holes) to make stitches (like embroidery).
Thank you for sharing! Hope this helps and hopefully to hear about the wool felt to run through this machine. Thank you! ☺️
Was wondering who and when this machine would be made again! I love my WRMK Evolution Advanced and have been using it for more than 12 years. Now I'll be able to get replacement pads and platforms easier! Gina's a smart cookie, I wish I had been able to buy the design from WRMK, it's truly always been a winner 👍🏻😎 I even have the letterpress kit and the magnetic platform etc, and they still work perfect - smart, very smart! ❤
I really can't stand trying to find the right plates/thicknesses I need in which machine to emboss with dies or folders. I wonder if this is usable for hot foiling too? I think this is worthwhile to sit right next to my Empress, it's unique and solves and issue!
This seems so obvious! Why did this not come out before? Yeah!
Thanks so much for this info, Jennifer! Is there an extended platform and cutting pad? If not, do you know if one is in the works?
Would be great to have an electric version of this ..Thanks Jennifer and Gina
Very nice…question, please…can you use the Gina’s poly glaze sheets with other machine?
❤️ Some people need all kind of shoes as die cutting machines . The die cutting machine looks amazing…
yes! me!
I am loving this! Such beautiful results. Thank you so much for all your videos. You rock
Absolutley amazing...beyond Awesome... Gina K is a Rock Star....and your
easy to understand tutorial I will watch over and over.....You are the best! Thanks
ever so much.
Jennifer, great demo of a wonderful and helpful machine. Thank you for sharing and leaving in the 'oops'.
