Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 43PK Abstract Elements by Tim Holtz

Sizzix Thinlits Dies are the perfect wafer-thin dies, 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! These dies are 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, making them perfect for card making, and allowing you to create a variety of projects using this die set.

Die cutting is a quick and easy way to produce individual or mass shapes from paper, foil, cardstock, or even chipboard using a machine and die, instead of cutting by hand. The die cutting machine applies the pressure, while the chosen die (such as a Sizzix Bigz, Thinlits, or Framelits die) is responsible for cutting the design. It's important to check the compatibility of your die rather than your machine, as certain materials may not be suitable for die cutting.

Using a Thinlits die is a straightforward process. Start by placing one cutting pad on your Big Shot Machine (660200), then place the Thinlits die on top. Next, place your chosen material on the die, and complete the sandwich with the second cutting pad. With one roll through the die cutting machine, your design will be revealed. Note that an Adapter Platform (658992) is required when using Thinlits dies with any of the Sizzix Big Shot machines.

While Sizzix dies are designed to work best with Sizzix machines, they may be compatible with other die cutting machines. If you have any questions about the compatibility of Sizzix dies with alternative machines, it's best to contact the manufacturer of the machine.

The Abstract Thinlits set by Tim Holtz is a fantastic example of the versatility of Thinlits dies. These shapes can be layered, manipulated, and rearranged in countless configurations, encouraging true originality and innovation. Thinlits dies allow you to cut intricate designs from a single sheet of paper, card, metallic foil, vellum, shrink plastic, and stencil film, making them ideal for a variety of creative pursuits, from paper crafting to stenciling.

In conclusion, Sizzix Thinlits Dies offer a wide range of possibilities for crafters and artists, with their wafer-thin design, intricate cuts, and compatibility with a variety of Sizzix die cutting machines. Whether you're creating birthday cards, invitations, or exploring abstract designs, these dies can help you achieve your creative vision.
