    Just discovered your YouTube for these hacks and was hoping to find the little poker/brush you used to get the little pieces out? Couldn’t find it in the supply list. Also, I’m hearing impaired – what is the name of your cutting machine? Thanks in advance!

      I am glad you found my video and blog post! The tool is called a Take Your Pick Took you can see it here https://www.stampinup.com/search/take%20your%20pick?sort=relevance&ts=1688596537496 since there are several attachments for it look at those while you are there.
      My Die Cutting Machine is called a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and you can see it here https://www.stampinup.com/search/cut%20&%20Emboss?sort=relevance&ts=1688596599705
      there are actually two sizes and two colors. The smaller one doesn’t work with all of the embossing folders and dies so take note of that.
      Let me know if you have any more questions!

    I like the embossing of half of the word! I also liked the washi tape over the ‘i’. I always lose them!
    I don’t have a lot of stamps with matching dies but I liked your tips, thank you.
