They are by Memory Box, they come from America, but there is a seller now on e-bay and they are cheaper than any others, very good, metal andthey cut perfectly every time and no bits to pick out...lol...I love them and will certainly get some more...I tried to get on your scrapbook post but the darned error kept coming up, what I was going to ask you have you tried the cover that fits on the promarkers to make afiner line, I have some now and dashed if I can get them to click on so wondered if you managed it ...love Jean xx
ohhhhhh they are lovely I think Joanna sheen does/did the memory box dies that flower is adorable I love flower dies I have the nibs that fit over the promarkers some you really need to push down first go to get them on xx
sorry me again just had a quick peep on GR Im not a member anymore so came back here - I notice you were chatting about Marianne dies and picking the bits out - the solution to them is cut out using wax paper first - although I have never tried Ive read it a lot - What works for me with these diesa and any others with fiddly bits is I put mine through machine to cut then turn it sideways and pop through again and bits that do remain I pop out with a cocktail stick xx
Hi Anne, hope all is well Joanna Sheen do sell them the address is up there quite a few with varying prices - I have never tried them BUT after seeing Jeans cards I may well do - I love the creatables on Joanna site for flowers :-)
Thanks for that Jan, they can be a bit of a pain. What a shame you are not on GR any more, we miss you on the thread. If Jean leaves as promised it will gradually die the death as there will be so few of us on there.
try turning it and pop it back through your cutter - I have a fancy nestie cutter I was sooooo upset as even gently pushing the bits out always broke - now its a breeze :-)
no i mean pop it through your machine and then turn die and pop through again - hard to explain say you were cutting butterfly pop through so wings are at top then pop through again so wings are on side does that make sense?
Maybe I am being thick here Jan, sorry Put the die through the machine, cutting out the butterfly. With another piece of paper turn the die and put it through again cutting another butterfly?????
Thank you Jean, what dies are they? I think the flower in the second to last is by Marianne but don't recognise the others.

ReplyDeleteYes you need to press the nib on very hard. They are very good though once you get them on.
ReplyDeleteAre the dies expensive, cheaper than Marianne? I think they can be a bit expensive.

ReplyDeleteJust checked the site, theya re very reasonable priced but a lot of the best ones are out of stock.
ReplyDeleteDo you mean reverse the die?
ReplyDeleteSorry should have said do you mean reverse the die and cut another piece?

ReplyDeletesent you pics hope that makes more sense xx
ReplyDeleteAah, light bulb moment. When you have cut the die, leave the paper in the die and run it through again sideways on?
ReplyDeleteI shall try that next time I get into cutting mode. Thanks Jan.
