I don't agree with the other reviewers. I found these dies to be extremely flimsy and bent upon the first use in my Cuttlebug.

I also find they don't make clean cuts, even after running it through the machine a few times with the right plates.

What's more, these "rectangles" are not shapped properly for card making. The width times length ratio is not right. They are too long and narrow. I was going to use them for card fronts and they're just too narrow and long for the standard 5 1/2 x 4 1/4" card front. If they cut better, perhaps they'd make okay tags. But then, my paper trimmer could do that just as well.

I have plenty of Spellbinders, Sizzix, Cuttlebug and older Quickkutz type dies and those all work fine. What a waste of money these were and they weren't a good deal at all for $24 if I can't use them.

First, these have many graduating shapes versus Spellbinders where you get far fewer dies for the same price. Second, they're great in tight places for very exact cuts (when saving paper or layouts are close together). Third, the graduating shapes allow easy, precise layering. Fourth, this provides, for my machine (which most people would have) the largest die that will fit.

Thought about giving just four stars just because they are a bit flimsy; although their thinness is what allows them to store compactly?

Love this item! Cuts great! I use these for so many things but mostly for cards. I use my ribbon punch to attach them to cards and many other things! Thanks so much!
