Mini Blossom Die Cutting Plates

This is a set of replacement plates for our Mini Blossom Die Cutting Machine.
These are designed to work with Altenew dies (sold separately) and other wafer-thin metal dies. It can be used to quickly and easily die cut a variety of materials, including cardstock and Altenew specialty papers, and will help you add texture and dimension to your projects. The elegant and clean design will look wonderful on your craft desk, secured on its stable base with suction feet.
"A" plate is used as the cutting plate. The "B" plate should be placed on the top of the tie and the "A" should be facing the blade of the die.
- Cutting plate size: 3" x 6 1/4"
- Includes three plates: 1 thin (B) and 2 thick plates (A)
I like the quality of the plates for this mini machine. And I like the A and B markings to be sure I always have the correct order when using. I am glad I bought an extra set to keep on hand.
This Mini blossom is so nice and compact. Great to have on your desk. Can't use the Mini for everything, but I'm enjoying getting up less. Additional plates as back up are necessary as the plates will warp over time due to use.
I was not really needing new plates yet but I wanted them on hand just in case I needed to do a change. I know I am using the Mini Blossom a lot so I may wear them out a lot faster.
This little die cut machine is perfect for dies 3" or smaller. I like to have an extra set of plates, 1 for home and one in my travel bag.

I've used cheap bone folders for years and have always been curious about a good teflon one, but didn't like the price point. But when Altenew came out with theirs I had to try it and I'm so in love!! What a difference! Thank you Altenew, for giving us such a good product at an affordable price!
I really enjoy this bone folder, not just to crease the cards with a real nice flat end, but it also does well inside my score buddy. Pricy but well worth it.

I love calla lilies ( had them in my wedding) and I so wanted to love these pens but they are just ok. They write really smooth which I why I gave 3 stars. It would have been nice if the diameter of each pen was different ( .05, .08, etc) also they feel a little funny to hold. These pens are super flexible and do not stand up as pictured in my caddie 😕.
These pens are not worth the price.
These are beautiful, comfortable and soft to touch. I like the way they have movement when you write because of the flexible stem. I don’t know how much ink is in them, but hope they last a long time. Would be cool to have refills. But, even if there are no refills I won’t get rid of them because they are so pretty for my work area.
My Sweet Petunia MISTI - Mini

We are so excited to be carrying MISTI! This stamp positioning tool is a great companion for all of our layering stamps.
Production information on MISTI from My Sweet Petunia Website:
This is the Most Incredible Stamp Tool Invented. MISTI's simple hinge design provides consistent stamping for the novice or experienced crafter. This tool will accommodate both the red rubber cling mount stamps or clear stamp. A foam pad is included with your MISTI to raise the cardstock when stamping with clear stamps. Your MISTI will provide a platform for multiple stamp techniques that are impossible with traditional stamp mounts. Use the two included magnets to quickly and easily position your cardstock, and the included grid paper makes it easy for you to layout and align your card's design. Your MISTI is an investment you will treasure and enjoy while saving you time and money while you make professional looking cards that reflect your creativity.
Dimension: 6 x 7
Stamp area: 6 x 4.75
Foam pad, sample grid paper, and two magnets are included.
NOTE:
Neodymium magnets are very brittle and very strong magnetically. Therefore, it is crucial to handle these magnets with extreme care to avoid personal injury and damage to the magnets. Fingers can be severely pinched between attracting magnets. Magnets can chip if allowed to “jump at” an attracting object. It is highly recommended that when constructing rare earth magnetic assemblies, they are magnetized after assembly.
Because of their brittle nature, magnets will not be warrantied, replaced, returned, or exchanged.
The mini Misti works perfectly for card making. I wouldn't be able the line up stamps for a second centered coat. I just wonder if you can ever wear it out? It's made well.
Thank You!
Seems to live up to the description. Said it comes with two magnets, but I only got one long one which works fine for me. I'm happy with it and it is easy to use. Takes ups little storage space, which is great.
I love this tool! I will be able to layer with ease instead of relying on by guess and by gosh. It is compact so it fits into my storage very nicely.

I have owned a few different self-healing mats over the years and this is by far the very best one. The matte finish helps with glare and the clean simple black and white grid make it easy to read. This is the last mat I will ever try.
Probably the last thing I needed was another stamping pad/craft mat, but I had watched a Jennifer McGuire tutorial where she pointed out the features of this one and I thought it would be appropriate for me. As always, Jennifer was right! The measurement markings are so convenient; its self-healing and we all know how helpful that can be. It’s 24” wide so it covers a vast area on my desk, and the surface finish helps to hold your project in place. I can’t say enough about this mat other than I recommend it very highly. Happy cardmaking 💕✂️🖌🖍💕
Just when I thought I had enough mats scattered around my craft room along came another one that caused me to think "go for it" and I am happy I did. This mat is huge and I love everything about it. I'm sure I will make good use of the marked off areas. The stamping pad is so pretty, knowing it's only a matter of time till I get ink all over it I "almost" hate to use it (but I will) - happy purchase !!
