Sizzix XL album dies

[jaynee]

Before I go and waste what looks like being a LOT of money ... does anyone have any of these and do you use them a lot? They just look like a quick and easy way to make mini books and I am intrigued and tempted

I have the original album book and page dies ... and I should use them more really !

[jaynee]

In your opinion, are they worth the money tho?

It's the bracket one

I have the bracket one as well - and I love it!

I have made quite a few mini books with it (and I love the fact you can cut mountboard with it), and I have also used it to make journalling cards.

They are expensive, but I have certainly got my money's worth out of mine.

Hope that helps!

Check tim holtz blog first, he has some edges for making mini books that mean you decide which size to make the books and are not stuck with just ome size, I did buy the mini scrapbook ones and ended up selling them as they were far to small.

I also Add edges using Martha Stewart edge punches, as they are really pretty

I have the bracket one and the accordian one. I got mine via the online sizzix newsletter last year so bought them for about 25% off their real price. Depends what price you are looking at and from whom. It really pays to shop around to be honest.
