First thing I made were Christmas tags and the mini size of this die set was perfect for the smaller tags which made everything look proportionate. I highly recommend this as a companion set to the bigger set as you can use this size as filler when using the larger set, or for all your smaller projects.
Nothing like having a set of Dies that can go a long way! I love greenery as it adds so much softness and warmth to a project. I've been enjoying cutting them apart to meet the needs of my projects. This was a great, versatile die set to add to my collection.
My Vagabond has been working overtime making these in every shade of green to be added to cards, tags, and bag toppers! (Both the mini and the original sizes.) They're a delight to use and appreciated by all who receive.
The dies arrived in a timely manner and as described. Can't wait to try them out on some Holiday cards.
Sadly I paid full price but this set met all my expectations. There are just some things that the Cameo and Circut just can't replicate and the fine intricacies of these dies are a prime example. I won a page contest using two of these dies. I'll be sure to tag the product once I do.
The cut on these dies is spot on. I know I'm going to get alot of use out of these as you are not just limited to using them for crafting holiday items. They would also be perfect for layouts or cards where you would want to use the pines for nature themes.
This die is very useful for "filler" greenery behind other flowers. They can also certainly be used on their own. They also create a beautiful watercolor background for lots of projects.
I had been looking for a thinlits with a variety of branches and greenery and just stumbled upon this one. I was so excited to find it. It came quickly and is of course great quality.
I love these. I cut some out as soon as I received them, but havent had the time to design a card. I did use the holly and a couple of the small,branches on my grandkids cards.

I use this die set with my Cuttlebug and it works just fine using the same sandwich as any other die. I would think it could be used with any die cutting machine, perhaps adding a shim to the sandwich? Good luck!

Does this work with the Sizzix texture boutique?

The Tim holtz Holiday Greens are thinlets. I read briefs online that the boutique only does embossing plates? However, it should work to cut with the thin dies. I just would recommend using a different thickness of platforms and not the embossing pads that come with it. You wouldn’t want to accidentally cut the embossing pad. Good luck, but it certainly seams worth the effort in trying.
