Sizziz - Totally Awesome Shirt!

Oh My Gosh! Talk about something totally cool. Check out what this Sizzix employee did to her official "sizzix" shirt for the SU convention. It showcases just another really COOL! way to incorporate your scrapping and cardmaking gear into all crafting aspects!!

She did it by ironing fusible webbing onto the fabric first. Then cut it with the Big Shot, then ironed it onto her shirt.

Think of the possibilities that opens up... Quilts, Fabric Table cloths, Fabric napkins, baby clothes/bibs, fabric purses all with SU designs!! WOOOHOOOO!

Stampin’ Up! welcomes Sizzix!

In a partnership move with Sizzix, Stampin' Up! is now carrying the "Big Shot" and exclusive dies designed by Stampin’ Up!

Yes, this is an official Sizzix "Big Shot" BUT it comes in a cool black and features *exclusive* Stampin’ Up! dies AND you can order regular Sizzix dies from me which can earn FREE hostess sets and benefits.

In an incredible move (no doubt meant to rob my children of their college fund) they are offering a matching Stampin’ Up! bag (It's so CUTE!) This adorable ‘party’ spread was made with our exclusive dies. Some amazing person thought of alternate uses for the dies to make masks and party stuff (I will be reduced to CASING it).

Some facts: I have dies from other companies; can I use them with the Big Shot? Yes, you can. The Big Shot is the most versatile die-cutting machine on the market today. Using the multi-purpose platform, you can use dies, embossing plates, and other products from a wide variety of sources.
What materials can I cut with the Big Shot? You can cut over 50 types of material using the Big Shot. A good rule of thumb is that if you can cut the material with your Craft & Rubber scissors, you can cut it with the Big Shot.

Is the Big Shot exclusive to Stampin’ Up!? No, the Big Shot machine is not exclusive to Stampin’ Up! However, the Big Shot produced for Stampin’ Up! features a handle color as well as a beautiful logo that are not available on any other version of the Big Shot. In addition to the hundreds of dies already available through Sizzix, they’ve created dies exclusive to Stampin’ Up! And, as we continue to develop this product line, you’ll see more and more Stampin’ Up! exclusive dies.
