Last night Mr. Brown (UPS) delivered my very own Big Shot!
I have been contemplating purchasing this die cut machine for months... and I finally went for it.
After seeing all of the awesome creations made using the Big Shot, I had to try it for myself. So, last night I quickly opened it and made this Fancy Favor box.
Big Shot (item #113439, $99.95)Fancy Favor Bigz Die (item #115965, $39.95)
Finished favor size: 3" x 2 - 1/4" x 3 1/2", Die size: 6" x 13 3/4"
You might be saying "wow, that is a LOT of money!" But the way I think about it is - the Big Shot is going to help me create so many handmade gifts - it will pay for itself in no time.
Think of all the ways you could use this Fancy Favor Box...
- Valentine's Day Treat Holders
- Wedding Favors
- Baby Shower Favors
- Birthday Party Favors
- Create a desk organizer using multiple boxes
TIP: Use 12" x 12" paper when you use the Fancy Favor Bigz Die.
This project was done from start to finish in 15 minutes. Fast, easy & pretty results! Without the Big Shot, creating my own box would have taken at least twice as long.
LOVE it as a Mom ... I'll take any time saver I can get.

Congrats on your Big Shot!! I know my stamping world has been turned upside down since I got mine last autumn. My budget limits me to the smaller dies and texture plates for the most part -- but there's SO much you can do with them! The fun has just begun!!

You will NEVER regret this purchase. I told myself three years ago...I'm really not "into" die cuts." I treat myself to at least one new die a month! I can't wait to try the fabric ideas! Have fun and TY for your inspirations. How 'bout Mary and her special workshop guest presenter!?
Stamp On! lorijane
