I love this A2 cover plate die. The cherry blossoms are so pretty and it's such a nice front for a card. Whilst it looks great plain with no additional adornment I like to add a butterfly, bird, or dragon fly on top of the flowers sometimes. But it's perfect alone or adorned. I'd highly recommend using Scrapbook's adhesive sheets 6X6 size when you use this so that when you need to stick it onto another piece of paper you'll only have to peel off the backing of the adhesive. Using a glue pen will waste a lot of glue and it's so much easier to use the adhesive sheets on intricate or large dies to make it easier on you.
I am really happy with this die and glad I got it. I used it in my Vagabond2 with the Magic Mat and it cut beautifully. Cherry blossoms are a favorite of mine, so this compliments my other cherry blossom themed stamps and dies. Great for spring or any occasion cards.
Used in this project: Smile flower card
This is such a pretty die and I'm so glad I bought it. Twice, it was out of stock and when it came in, I snapped it up. It's a lovely design with motion and life to it. I could cut the flowers off the top and use the image like that, or cut both sets of flowers off and layer them onto a card. I probably still could use the center part for an accent on a card. I like this die very much. We're only limited by the scope of our imaginations. I think I will be using my, "pokey tool" (craft pick) on this die, for poking out the waste out of the center holes, but that's no big deal.
I'm real happy with this purchase.
The middle portion between the flowers, doesn’t cut out well. Is there a trick to die cut better? Do like the look of the die, if only it would cut thru better.
Before you even take off the first cover plate from your die machine, most of the paper pieces of the 'cherry blossoms' are falling all over the place!! And for some reason, I cannot click on the sample cards that others have made using this die - so I'm unsure how this die is to be used!! None of the tiny middle diamond shapes even showed up on the copy of this die, and I even used cheap card stock so as not to waste my good cardstock!!! This was not a 'cheap' or 'inexpensive' die!! Does anyone man the phones at Scrapbook.com so I can place a call to them to find out why I cannot remove items from my cart that are now sold out??! Please, help?!!!
