Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 41PK Alphanumeric by Tim Holtz

Sizzix Thinlits Dies are the perfect wafer-thin die, providing much more intricate designs with clean and precise cuts than you'd get from your average die. Designed especially for papercraft, you can now add the most delicate components to your birthday cards, invitations and more! Compatible with a wide range of Sizzix die cutting machines such as the Sizzix Big Shot, Sizzix Big Shot Plus, Sizzix Big Shot Foldaway, Sizzix Big Shot Pro and Sizzix Big Shot Express, all of which are perfect die cutting machines for card making, so you won't be short on projects you can utilise this die set for.

Die cutting is a quick and easy way of producing individual, or mass shapes from paper, foil, cardstock or even chipboard using a machine and die, instead of cutting by hand. While the die cutting machine will always be necessary in order to die cut, it's not the machine itself that physically cuts your material. Your chosen die (for example a Sizzix Bigz, Thinlits or Framelits die), is responsible for cutting the design, with the machine just applying the pressure. So if you're ever unsure if you can die cut a certain material, check the compatibility of your die rather than your machine.

Using a Thinlits die is easy. Simply grab your Big Shot Machine (660200) and Standard Cutting Pads (655093) to get started. Take one cutting pad and place your Thinlits die on top, then place your chosen material on top of the die. Complete your sandwich with your second cutting pad placed on the top of the Thinlits die and chosen material, and you're ready to go! With one roll through your die cutting machine, your design will be revealed. Note that an Adapter Platform (658992) will be required when using Thinlits dies with any of our Sizzix Big Shot machines. Simply place this under the sandwich you've created and you're ready to go.

While we always advise use of our dies with Sizzix machines for best results, if you have any questions relating to the compatibility of Sizzix dies with alternative machines, please get in touch with the manufacturer of the machine.
