Create a winter wonderland with the Christmas Shadow Box Thinlits Die set by Sizzix. The package includes 20 thin metal dies that measure .5" x .675" to 3.25" x 4.5". The set features images including a Christmas tree, bird, deer, rabbit, trees and foliage all designed by Courtney Chilson. The dies are compatible with the BIGkick, Vagabond and Big Shot machines when used with a pair of Cutting Pads and the machine's included Platform (all items sold separately).
The product could use some instructions included or a direct link to view steps to complete shadow box.
Fortunately I am familiar with cardmaking and was able to figure out the steps to complete the project. However beginners may become confused as to how to follow the illustrations.
I've recently purchased this set from scrapbook.com with a concern that it will not be used. How I was wrong! I've already made 4 cards and I'm planning to create more, using this wonderful set. I've replaced the Christmas Tree with a die cut of silhouettes of tree kids holding hands and the finished cards were the perfect handmade gifts for my daughter's kindergarten teachers. I'm planning on using this set with different silhouettes (a baby, a married couple and so on) to make different cards for my family and friends. Such a lovely set and the quality of the die cuts is very good- Intricate but sturdy. I cut many pieces from this set and none of them got torn in the process. I took a textured cardstock paper (A4 sized), folded it in half with a bone folder and then cut the card into 5.5'' wide X 6 '' height. In my next cards, I would probably cut the cards to fit 5.5''X6.5'' or larger.
Great find!
Used in this project: Forest Friends Card using Sizzix's Christmas Shadow Box dies
The only problem with this die is there are no instructions on how this goes together. I went to Sizzix , YouTube and Pinterest.. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Once I figured it out it’s really cute and it’s a great size. I always love the great detail of their dies.
I'm using this set to make my Christmas cards this year. Love the dimensional effect on the cards, and all the elements included. The finished cards are wonderful. And I'll be able to use many of the details in non-Christmas cards in the future.
Haven't used these yet, but they appear to be consistent quality with other Sizzix products. Can't wait!
Have not used as of yet (100° temps not good for thinking Christmas) but I plan on doing a test day and cutting off a bunch of pieces so I can do an assembly line! Love this die set! Going to make really cute cards!

Does this require extra postage or will just a regular stamp be good for mailing?

Depending on how many dies are included in the package. A padded envelope would be the best way to mail the items. You would not need a large envelop but is should be padded and the dies placed between two sheets of cardboard. Take to the post office and have it weighed. This way you can be sure there will be no postage due upon arrival to it’s destination . Hope this has helped. Have a wonderful holiday season.

I created with this die cuts a 5.5'' wide and 6'' tall (height).
I'm having a devil of a time finding the right colors of paper for this project. Would anyone mind sharing? Particularly the leafy bits and the frame colors.

The first time I used what cardstock I had on hand close to the colors in the picture. Now I like to make the background blue and cut everything else out in white. looks pretty like winter. you can always cut white and then ink the colors you like. Hope this helps.
