Hi guys, wondering if anyone has any recommendations regarding
die-cutting systems (eg sizzix, ellison, etc). I may be getting one for
Christmas but I'm not sure which one would be best. Would appreciate
hearing about peoples' experiences with the different systems.
Are they all fairly equal or are some easier/quicker/whatever to use?
Can the dies only be used with their own machine or are they
interchangeable? Do some machines cope better than others with thicker
paper/card? Anything else you've come across while using them?
Unfortunately the budget doesn't stretch to a Craft Robo, so that's out.
And I am in the UK. Thanks in advance for any help...
