Add a sunny summer touch to your paper craft creations with the Sunshine Layered Die Set by Paper Rose. The package includes two thin metal dies that are compatible with most die cutting machines (sold separately).
I like this die and it suits my needs perfectly.
I am an experienced die user, making 100 - 150 cards per month for charity, many of them "Sending Sunshine" cards. I own a top notch die cutting machine and I think I know most of the tricks on how to cut intricate dies.
However, to get a clean cut, I have to run it through my Big Shot multiple times (3-4), use wax paper AND shims and I still spend a half an hour or more cutting out the end of the "e" with an Xacto knife. More often than not, the end gets torn or is so mangled when it comes out of the die, I have to throw it away.
I own four very pretty Paper Rose dies, two borders and two sentiments. I am sorry to have purchased three out of the four of them, all for the same reason - poor cutting.
I am sorry to say, as pretty as it is and as much as it has suited my personal needs, I would not recommend this die. I will also think twice before I purchase another Paper Rose die.
This die cut was exactly what I wanted. Great size & cuts perfectly.
