After all, I most likely wouldn&#39;t be using it to do scrapbooking and would I really need it for cards? Let me tell you&#8230;.it is one of my tools I use most!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">The variety of dies available through Stampin&#39; Up! is amazing. You can find dies for small gift packaging like the <strong>Matchbox die<\/strong> (114890), the <strong>Fancy Favor die<\/strong> (115965), and the <strong>Mini Milk Carton die<\/strong> (117310). There is even a die to cut out a card with a window in it, the <strong>Magnetic Movers &amp; Shapers<\/strong> (114506, 116821, and 115953). All kinds of dies are available to cut out accent pieces and the Sizzlx Embosslit <strong>dies<\/strong> will cut out and emboss an accent at the same time. I use these accents on my cards all the time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-family: Tahoma;\">I also did not originally know the scope of materials that the <strong>Big Shot<\/strong> can cut. It not only cuts <strong>paper<\/strong> but <strong>fabric<\/strong>, <strong>cork<\/strong>, <strong>metal<\/strong>, and <strong>vinyl<\/strong> to name a few of the <strong>50 different materials<\/strong> it can cut. I have attached an example of this. I wanted to make an unique 3D item to swap at the Stampin&#39; Up! convention this year. Since the <strong>Big Shot<\/strong> can cut metal, I adapted a project I saw on Jane Giggy&#39;s blog where she cut butterflies out of pop cans using the <strong>Beautiful Butterflies die<\/strong> (114507) and made plant stakes out of them. I love the look of copper (and don&#39;t drink pop so didn&#39;t have any pop cans around) so I went to the local hardware store in search of sheets of thin copper. What I found was a large roll of copper flashing. It will last me a long time. I have included a picture of my creation. They were a big hit at convention. Now&#8230;.go to my online store by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/creationsbysue.stampinup.net\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a> to place an order for your own <strong>Big Shot<\/strong>! You will wonder how you ever did without it! Contact <a href=\"mailto:sue@soggystamper.com\" target=\"_blank\">me<\/a> for more ideas on using your <strong>Big Shot<\/strong>. Thanks for stopping by!
