Cutting dies are popular among card makers, paper crafters, and scrap bookers. Dies are used to add dimension and decorative elements to many different paper craft projects including cards, journal pages, planner embellishments and more. Craft Dies are even great to create shapes and phrases for decorating layouts or making kids craft projects. We offer various types of cutting dies under the Tim Holtz® Alterations by Sizzix Brand as well as Wendy Vecchi MAKE ART Stamp, Die and Stencil Sets.
How to Use Craft Dies
When using dies for a craft project you will first need a die-cutting or embossing machine, such as the Tim Holtz® Sizzix® Vagabond 2. These machines vary in brand, size and price point and can be automatic or hand cranked in nature. Once you have a die cutting machine you need to choose the style, shape, and texture you are looking to achieve on your project as well as the surface that you wish to begin with.
