I really like making home decor and paper products that have Giraffes for my grown grandson's (age 29) beautiful tall Paramedic girlfriend that loves Giraffes. I saw this set and I thought how cute is that? But....to be able to use the other dies, what are they for? A Stamp Set that coordinates with these dies. I'm sorry that I didn't buy the Stamp Set,l but I will. The other small dies are a Jungle Tree Leaf and a Jungle Bird.

I have a lot of several types of paper crating products, stamps, inks, cutting dies, cardstock, ephemera, stickers, etc. that Tim Holtz has designer for several different companies. This set has a lot of different greenery, assorted shapes and sizes. Also one tiny flower; it is shown in th photo on the far left side with tiny yellow flower buds. This die is very small. The Poinsettia die makes a 3D embellishment. The Pine Cone cuts 2 pieces, the basic shape of the Pine Cone and another die that makes the outside and it looks good using a different shade of brown and type of cardstock; I use plain brown cardstock and brown shimmer card stock.

I love Tim Holtz's products that he designs for several companies; along with stamps, inks, embellishments, cardstock, etc. I love making the Halloween Potion Bottles for making tags and cards that I send to everyone that I know. This Halloween set of Dies from Sizzix by Tim Holtz are smaller sizes, also labels, bubbles and a couple that depict the contents level (plain cut) on a couple of the bottles. There is also the Shelf! This photo shows 2 shelves, you would have to die-cut 2 of them to copy the photo.

I love Tim Holtz's line of products; and he has so many! He is involved with about 6 different manufacturers in paper crafting dies, stamps, inks, and tools. I have quite a lot of his different objects. I purchased these Dies named for Autumn designed by Tim Holtz and Sizzix. I have made Thanksgiving Day cards to be mailed out to my relatives, friends and former co-workers and making items using these dies and they came out so cute and pretty!

My grown grandson is a Premier Dog Groomer and loves animals. He is into Lizards and I wanted a nice colorful print paper to use as I make different home Decor Objects for him. Last year I made him a wooden basket decorated with a Jungle Theme and LIzards, he loved it! So I wanted more papers to use to make him something different this year for Christmas. This line of "Jungle Life" from BoBunny is perfect for what I want to make.

I really like American Crafts products. They have so much available for paper crafts. I make all of my own cards for every holiday and occasion. This is a very nice selection of Halloween print in cardstock. There are Cut-Aparts....very nice images and designs in this book that you can cut apart to use!

Pink Paislee's "Spellcast" is a large set of lovely Halloween double-sided cardstock, Thickers, Cardstock stickers and this...lovely Washi Book! There is so many designs in Washi Tape here...which of them do I want to put on my handmade cards for Halloween?

I have purchased these lovely Black Acetate with Gold Foil Stickers when this beautiful Halloween line "Spellcast" by Pink Paislee was available. I wanted more of them. I have 5 of them!

This is a lovely set of "Thickers Spellcast" from Pink Paislee. I have purchased it when the set was available a couple of years ago. I wanted more of it.

I have purchased the entire set a couple of years ago, and I wanted more of it. Double-Sided printed cardstock is always great to use. I make all of my cards for every holiday and occasion. I really like Pink Paislee's "Spellcast" set.

I have been purchasing paper products, mainly cardstock from Bazzill for a very long time, more than 15 years. They have the best cardstock you can buy. I make all of my cards handmade for every occasion and holiday. Normal cardstock is great, but a lot of it regardless of the brand or you buy it or use Bazzill, can be a little difficult since regular cardstock is a lot lower weight and my cards want to bend or not hold a lot of embellishments. This 110 lb. weight cardstock from Bazzill is perfect for card bases. I am now almost finished with my 4th of July cards using this heavyweight cardstock, and they sure look great!

I do really like Reminisce; I have been purchasing their paper products for many years. This is a colorful and attractive fresh water fishing theme. My son is middle aged and loves fishing. As he lives in the Midwest, and I'm on the East Coast, I had to really search for fresh water paper products to make him a nice birthday card with fresh water images. He replied to me after receiving his birthday card saying how much he liked the handmade card I sent him.

My son who is a middle age man lives in the Midwest and there all the water is fresh water and he does love fishing. I wanted embellishments of fresh water fish, and Paper House has these colorful fresh water Bass fish. So I purchased a package of them. My son replied to me when he received the nice colorful birthday card; he really liked it.

I bought the entire line of "Welcome Spring" that Imaginisce/American Crafts had a couple of years ago. It sure is a pretty line of scrapbooking and/or Handmade Cards products. So when I saw these cute images on these cutting dies, I knew I had to have them. That is a Fox Head that is the image on the lower left side of the yellow card that you see. I have the coordinating stamps too; and one of the phrases uses the Fox image. I make all of my cards homemade for every occasion and holiday. I hear comments from my cousins, friends and former co-workers that they love my cards, they are so pretty. These cutting dies are so cute!

I make all of my cards handmade. When I saw this cutting die on Scrapbook.come, I knew I wanted it to make pretty Starbursts for my handmade 4th of July cards that I mail to a lot of people. I live in another state a long way from where I was born and raised until I was in my 60's. So I make my cards and mail them to a lot of cousins, friends and former co-workers. These Starbursts will look very pretty when I make die-cuts in assorted Patriotic colors!

I make all of my cards for occasions and every holiday, and I love using nice cutting dies. Lawn Fawn has this one, it makes pretty Stitched Fireworks. Of course I purchased it to use for my 4th of July handmade cards.

This color may not look like an Aqua, but I purchased it to coordinate with Photo Play's kit of French Flea Market.
Bazzill has so much to choose from in solid cardstock which they have includes dozens of colors and finishes.

This 12" x 12" solid color named Almond Cream is a smooth finish cardstock. I have tons of cardstock from Bazzill. I believe they are the best in Cardstock and thay have dozens of name of colors and shades available, and so many different finishes. I chose this color to coordinate with Photo Play's kit French Flea Market .

I have purchased Doodlebug products for many years, at least 15 years so far! They have so much cardstock in different finishes and so many, many colors. This particular shade is a Blue named "Bubble Blue".
I chose to coordinate with the 12" kit from Photo Play's "French Flea Market". Doodlebug also has a large amount of different designs in occasions and holidays to choose from.

I do love die cutting. I have the Sizzix Big Shot manuel roller type of die cutting machine. I do purchase a large amount of dies for all occasions and holidays. This die is an Eiffel Tower which is 3" Wide x 5 1/8" Tall. Since it has an etched design on it, that will show on the die cutted piece(s). I am making different paper crafting items and a wooden chest decorated with French themed items. My granddaughter is a grown young lady and speaks fluent French; she has taken French for the past 12 years in elementary school, high school and her states university.

Penny Black has a very nice selection of paper crafting merchandise. This is a French Theme and I really like having French Themed products to make items for my grown granddaughter. I am making assorted items for her as Christmas gifts, but her birthday is in January, so I will be making things for awhile.
This 6" x 6" Cardstock pad has the colored prints and other prints that are just in black and white. Just look at the very nice prints including the Eiffel Tower, the Fleur-Di-Lis, all the shoes, etc. It is a nice collection to have.

I have purchased the 12" Collection set also; and having these lovely cardstock ephemera (tags, phrases, birds in cages, etc.) is a nice thing to have. As I am making a wooden medium size chest to give to my grown granddaughter, I believe the printed and cut shapes of their line would be nice to have for extra projects that I am always making. Photo Play Company has a great selection of paper crafting merchandise.

I did purchase the 12" x 12" Collection set that Photo Play has, but I always like to have more cardstockers tickers to have. This is a French theme and having just these stickers can be very pretty to use on all sorts of projects and paper crafts.

I purchased this 12" x 12" Collection Pack to make some French theme projects for my grown granddaughter; she is an English school teacher. She really loves coffees of all flavors. So for Christmas I am making a wooden medium sized chest and I saw this collection pack and thought it would be really nice and fun to make things with! This collection has the 12" x 12" printed papers and matching cardstock stickers; I am looking forward to be making items with this set!

My grown granddaughter loves all coffees so much, I can always decide on a project to make her using a lot of coffee printed papers, cardstocks and embellishments. This particularly set is Wooden 3D Embellishments and they come in a little wooden box!
How delightful is that? I have not seen that type of holder for embellishments like Prima has used. Prima is a top leading papercrafting manufacturer and I have purchased their products for many years.

As I am a long time customer of Doodlebug, I really know their large selection of paper crafting products. This selection is named "At The Zoo" color coordinated petite prints to use with their "At The Zoo" assorted prints about the Jungle, Animals and a Zoo. This particularly package of prints are the colors that are shown and each side is the same color with a slightly different design. They are so useful to have for assorted paper and crafting projects.

Yes I purchased these double-sided printed cardstock for a Christmas gift that I am making for my grown grandson's girlfriend. Both of them are in their late 20's, so they are not small children. The girlfriend loves everything about Giraffes; and the one side of this cute printed cardstock is a Giraffe's hide design. I will be making a medium wooden chest that I will be painting and using the printed cardstocks from Doodlebug!
These double-sided Cardstock prints are a nice weight to work with for projects.

These Jungle Leaves are so cute and they are Epoxy, a soft product to use. ; I wished I had bought more than 1 package. These are just the correct sizes for cards, scrapbooking and smaller crafting projects that you can make. Doodlebug has been one of the top papercrafting companies for many, many years. I have purchased their items for about 20 years.

I had first purchased just a couple of the printed double-sided printed cardstock for my project. But spending so much time trying to find solid color cardstock to use with the prints, I purchased this item. Echo Park makes so many lovely collections for every occasion, season and holiday. I love this collection of Just Be You!

I have purchased the entire line of Just Be You from Echo Park. Echo Park always has such lovely collections to choose from regardless of the theme, occasion, season or holiday. In my case I wanted the Cactus prints for my paper crafting projects. After trying to match solid color cardstock and embellishments, I purchased the other items too. This Die is so cute, I had to have it. This way I can make as many flowers as I want to using this Floral Die that matches this collection.

Themes: Floral, Phrases and Expressions, Love, Celebrations and Events, Anniversary
I purchased the entire line of Echo Park's Just Be You Collection. That way I have all the prints, ephemera and cardstock that coordinate. I was especially interested in the Cacti prints for Cactus Shaped greeting cards I am making for quite a few birthdays for relatives and friends (all female) this summer of 2017. It is a very attraction collection.

This collection has Cactus, florals, plaids, bicycles, chevrons, Dream Catchers, birds, feathers, etc.
Themes: Floral, Phrases and Expressions, Love, Celebrations and Events, Anniversary. So this collection is for almost every occasion.

I love this collection! I am making Cactus-Shaped hand-made cards for several birthdays for my relatives and friends. This a so pretty; very colorful and it is a double-sided printed cardstock. Echo Park's paper crafting supplies are top quality!

I am creating some paper crafting projects that have Cactus themes. This pretty collection from Echo Park is just right for me.

This is another colorful print from the Just Be You Collection from Echo Park. They have Cacti and Florals too in this collection. The printed cardstock is double- sided. I love double-sided prints as there are the same colors that coordinate with each other.

I purchased these double-sided printed cardstock for a particular paper crafting project. This print has lovely bright colors and there are Succulents and Flowers in this line.

I love these dies and stamps in the line of "In Bloom" designed by Jen Long for Sizzix. There are several different stamp and dies sets, plus the main Cactus Fold-Along Card dies and coloring postcards and booklet to color and frame after completing your coloring.

I bought this very nice Mini St. Patrick's Day/Irish Theme Collection to make handmade St. Patrick's Day cards. This comes with double-sided cardstock which I always love and a sheet of cardstock stickers from Echo Park.

I love Echo Park products; I am never dissatisfied. I bought this double-sided cardstock to use in making handmade greeting cards for St. Patrick's Day. It also is perfect for an Irish Theme for any project.

I bought this lovely cardstock to use in making handmade greeting cards for St. Patrick's Day; but it can be used in any paper project that you are doing for an Irish Theme too.

I bought this thin etched metal Die for my 4th of July handmade cards. It is listed as "Super Star" for I think a boy's birthday. The center cuts 1 piece with a tiny smile, eyes and stars. The small star border surrounding it is a separate piece and the larger star border above that is a separate piece. Several of the stars have 2 or 3 layers to them. So some cuts are very small, but comes out so cute. Of course if you want different colors, such as Patriotic, you have to do several cuttings in different colors. This Die is to be used in manual roller machines such as Sizzix Big Shot, etc.

These Cardstock stickers are perfect for paper crafts; whether you're making cards, scrapbook pages, or an Irish theme project, etc.

This is a small thin metal die to be used in manual roller die cutter machines such as Sizzix Big Shot. Of course you have to cut 2 different colors of cardstock to get a "colored tulip head" and the "green stem and leaves". The cardstock or paper comes away easily after cutting.

This is 1 Die that Cuts a Row of Tulips and Raindrops falling on them. This Die is a thin metal Die to be used in manual roller machines, such as Sizzix Big Shot, etc. I saw after cutting a couple of these cute designs, was that the negative row of tulips can also be used by trimming away the uneven cut edge of the "grass" negative.

These Dies are to be used in manual roller die-cutting machines, such as Sizzix Big Shot, etc. They can cut paper, cardstock and other media. The Die-Cut pieces almost fall away from the Dies, so there is no pieces of papers or cardstock that you have to try to dig out.

I love Tim Holtz.Sizzix and I have quite a lot of different types of paper crafting dies, inks, etc by Tim. These dies are very easy to use. I know that some dies I have are very difficult to get a cut shape out of some intricate designs of dies; it is very irritating. But the cardstock almost fall out of these dies. The different flower designs are pretty even just using solid cardstock colors.

I make a lot of handmade greeting cards; and these Enamel Dots are pretty. They add a nice little elegant touch to any project with an Autumn theme.

I recently purchased this die by Tim Holtz-Sizzix. The assorted types of leaves and small twig or branch makes a pretty combination.

This die measures 4 1/2" long and 3/4" high; it's just right for A-2 cards. But, I found I can match up the ends and snip off a blade or 2 and have it long enough for a larger card. Also, the negative is usable too! So you can get 2 cuts each time.

This particular Die has 5 different designs; and the title of the Die is "All About A Boy"! I think this set will be great for a boy or a man's birthday card.

I love Tim Holtz's products who designs a lot of Dies for Sizzix. I wanted this particular die to have cut outs for a masculine theme birthday cards.
