Sizzix660225 Thinlits Die Set, Friendship Words: Script by Tim Holtz (16 Pack)

I just got these and I read other reviews before I purchased them and feel there needs to be a more adequate description as to how big these dies are. So here goes.The base letter with no upper or lower loops is approximately 1/2". Upper extensions such as "l, h, or d" add approximately 1/2". Lower extensions such a "f, p, or g" add approximately 1/2". So . . . in the word "together", where you have both upper and lower extensions added to your base word, it would total 1-1/2". These measurements make it seem like it might be too big for an A2 card. In actuality, they look rather diminutive. Don't let the 1-1/2" measurement deter you from buying this set. It is a very nice collection of words. They are just the right size to get your words noticed without being overbearing in your overall design.I bought this set solely for the two words "together forever" to use them for wedding cards I'm making. I like this set so much, I plan to purchase the other Tim Holtz word sets (I think there are a total of five more sets to include 1) Christmas words, 2) vacation words, 3) Adventure words, 4) Celebration words and 5) and Daily words with days of the week.). I love the fact that all of the words use the same script so they can be mised and matched with each other.I hope this additional information helps you to make the decision to buy this set.

This Tim Holtz thinlits die set is awesome. The words are a perfect size for making cards, scrap journals and mixed media projects. The dies cut beautifully and the paper releases easily. This set is a great price.

I like you said they came out very well, easy to use and very attractive

Awesome selection. Nothing to dislike.

I like all these words and the way I can use them. Once cut, they are very thin and I handle with care. I use in journals and use glue to adhere them. I have found I prefer stick glue to a liquid glue, but I have to be careful with them regardless. I like the font on these and find it fun when making a journal to use them on tags and over other cut-outs. I especially like them in my collages (eliminating the need for any adhesive) using leftover scraps from other projects. I have, at times, cut up the words to make another word.

The writing is very nice. Something I don’t like is that some letters come out broken. But I am still working on it to see if is something I can do.

I LOVE TO DIE CUT WORDS, IT MAKES CRAFTING SO MUCH EASIER. ALTHOUGH THESE MAY SEEM MORE LIKE A SCRAPBOOKING SET OF WORDS, THE MORE I LOOKED AT THEM I COULD SEE INCORPORATING THESE WORDS INTO MY GREETING CARDS AS WELL. THEY CUT OUT BEAUTIFULLY. AND THEY END UP COSTING LESS THAN $1 EACH. THEY'RE ALSO A GREAT SIZE. FOR EXAMPLE THE WORD REMEMBER IS 3" LONG AND 1" TALL.

I have three different of these word sets and the alphas, too, and love them all. I use them on cards and scrapbook pages I make. They're perfect.
