This is the first Sizzlits die I have ever tried and I love it. As another reviewer pointed out all of the pieces are cut individually and can be placed where appropriate. It made even a clutz like me feel artistic! One thing I noted was that if I wanted to retain the texture on my Bazzill Basics cardstock I needed to put it upside down on the die or otherwise my Bigshot machine flattened it out. It may just be my lack of knowledge or skill, and that would be an issue with the acorn where the die scores it as part of the process, but I will share that info for others. I still love what this die did for the look of my layout.
I have been wanting this die for a while because it has a lot of components that can be used in other ways. Done in coral colors, the branch can be under sea coral. The leaves can go on other trees, etc... have fun with this one!
I was very satisfied with your prompt service for a product I could not find in the area where I live. Thank you.
Just love this die strip. The results are amazing and so autumnal! It would have been nicer to have separate elements, but I just keep passing the die through with my various papers. Now I'd like to find a video that helps me create beautiful autumn leaves using distress stain or alcohol inks.
I was pleasantly surprised it was a little small than I expected. It will make great Thanksgiving cards next year as well as looking wonderful on a scrapbook page. Love it.
Tim Holtz hit another one out of the park with this versitile decorative strip die! Awesome
I can make a wide variety of leaves for all seasons.
new to die cutting. Love these really cool to be able to individualize

What are the size of the leaves?

Most of the leaves are between 1" and 1-1/2" long and 3/4" to 1" wide. The entire pattern of leaves and branches is 1-3/4" wide by 11-3/4" long. They make a beautiful pattern along a page. I have colored several strips of vellum with my Tombow markers and cut the leave out. They're stunning in an overlay pattern, especially with some solids cut out of cardstock.
