Hi! I've been eyeing the interior scallop rectangle frame dies with stitching...some of the ones I've been coveting are:
1. Mama Elephant Park Avenue Framed Tags (the largest die fully covers an A2 sized card front which is great, but the rest of the dies in the set I don't really need/want)
2. MFT Die-namics stitched scallop frame (four dies in varying sizes - largest is slightly smaller than A2 card front)
3. Pretty Pink Posh Scallop Rectangle Frames (two dies, largest is listed as 4x5 but that doesn't seem like it would be proportional for an A2 card front?)
Does anyone have any reviews/feedback on the sets above and which they prefer? I know this is incredibly subjective and comes down to personal choice but I really want to make a purchase soon and am so torn!
Plus I know once I get the rectangle dies, I'm gonna want the square and circle ones too HAH. :p
Have you seen these? Her dies are super affordable (IMO). I ordered from her about 2 weeks ago. Shipping was fast, and the dies are fabulous! Great quality!
I have trouble cutting gina marie dies. Im sure its user error because everyone has amazing things to say about them but i just cant seem to make them cut all the way or cut stitched details evenly for me! Ive tried shims, precision metal plates, new cutting plates even. I have not had issues with mama elephant, mft, lawn fawn etc cutting evenly with my cuttlebug so i tend to purchase those instead (boo for my wallet). But i do wish the gina marie dies would work for me because the price point is excellent!
Another issue i had with the gina marie stitched rectangle dies in the past was that the largest was not proportional for an A2 sized card and cut at approximately 4x5.5. Does anyone know if her new stitched rectangle dies are sized well for A2 cards? I might give them another try if so...

That's odd. Because I'm betting several of those companies use the same manufacturer. I can run them through my machine together and they cut fine. What machine are you using?

I, too, am looking for stitched rectangle dies that are correctly proportional to A2 sized cards. I have 3 different sets and they are all "off". Would you please start a new thread with that question? That way I won't miss the anwers...😎

I, too, like making A6 sized cards. It's nice to have a bit more elbow room to balance a design. That being said, none of the stitched rectangle dies I have purchased are sized nicely for either the A2 or the A6 size. The hunt continues!
