I thought about getting these but wasn't convinced that I'd use them all that much! So glad I followed my instinct and passed! Your videos are sooooo good. I love to watch you discuss and demonstrate things! Always right on point! Thanks for doing all you do!
That's so kind! I am definitely returning this large set, but will keep the individual square and rectangle ones when they come in (to put thick cards in).
A whole year later & I make all these boxes using your embossing folder technique for each lid...I love all 4 shapes! They make the cutest little boxes & the possibilities for decorating them are endless! I’m using assorted colors of Centura Pearl & Recollections 110#. Thanks so much for this tutorial 😍@VianneyCreates! Great idea to use acetate for enlarging the boxes! 💡 (I wonder why they all say makes 3 different sizes, but only 1 makes 3 & the other 3 makes 2?! Bummer!)
@@VianneyCreates they call me Steph, too. So, I'll be your friend on-line. Thank you for your great videos, I'm enjoying myself watching all your videos. You are fun!
LOL!! TYSM, I love math...especially algebra. I suppose it helps that my kids are so far apart in age that I'm always working with one of them in that area! (: I love working out equations, I never cared for Geometry or Trig! Ugh. LOL!!
Hi Vianney, I must say that the small hex box is NOT TOO small. There is a thing that young girls, teens and tweens are crazy about. It's Pura Vida bracelets. The small hex box is absolutely perfect for it as a gift. It is very popular this holiday gift giving season. I just made a bunch for my grand daughter as she is giving these bracelets as gifts to her friends and some for me as I am giving some to her as well. I decorated them with thin washi tape in a cross like a present design and put a die cut glitter paper snowflake in the center. They are beautiful.So not too small after all. Oh and one more thing. They fit perfectly together if you don't emboss the top. The embossing stretches the paper.
Hi VC, I just want to thank you for your honesty and your fantastic demo’s 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼it seems like a lot of work 😅more than I want yo put in 🤣but really is cute ☺️
You are so kind, TY!! I hope to do the square and rectangle dies review soon bc some people said they really don't work for standard US card sizes...we will see!
That is definitely a cute box with the acetate. Without you could possible fit some rings in there or as you stated little jewelry. Thanks for sharing. Blessings.
It is a cute box and was easy to put together. I hope to try the larger square and rectangle ones, I think they'll make more sense. Like you can use them to put a card in or a note set gift.
The box looks good. I thought of ordering them also but like you said in a month they will be at Tuesday Morning for $3.99. I was disappointed to see the subscription box at Tuesday Morning for $12.99 when she said the only way you could get them was through the subscription plan. I think i will cancel my subscription next month. Tfs
Right? I hear her saying that this is the only way you can get that compendium...but I don't think so. Actually, what happens is the host says that and Sara just kind of "uh hmms" it! LOL! I guess the deal is if you get it first, you pay a more...but if you can wait, you will get a lower price. I did get the TS, but I am not sure that I'll keep it. We will see, I did have a great time with this month's sub box...I will upload the video tomorrow. It's a very cute box!
That is cute!! Fill with candy, put a bow on top with a tag for valentines day😁 I ordered the box but the gemini mini was sold out...I ordered the gemini go because both openings are 3 inches wide (the mini & the gemini go) then they announced they had a few more of the mini...i could have called but i said nah...i wanted the gemini go anyway😁...next year, gemini jr for my birthday then i will be finished with machines...maybe😂😂. I really wanted that box and its processing!! Flexpay is awesome!!
Flexpay is the way to go! I use it even for stuff that costs $10! Why part with your money when you don't have to?? LOL!! If you have any questions about your new goodies, let me know!
You know I will!!! 😁 This is the most I have ever spent on anything at hsn...I made a birthday card for a friend using my diamond press and my table was a mess lol...I do enjoy crafting...it's relaxing and so much fun creating something so beautiful for family, and friends!💜
Wow you ordered yesturday at night and you already received it 😮😮😮 how do you get them so fast, I'm in S. California. I wanted those boxes but don't have the big gemini and Anna griffin took all my budget she rocked it with this release 😂. Plus I thought what can I fit in those boxes but now seeing what you did with it adding the acetate that is so clever. Yes when I saw the price for the bundle I thought it was a mistake it was a little high. Watching this video I don't think I will get them
Hi! I had ordered these dies a couple of days ago, that's why they are here already. The stuff I ordered yesterday is already on its way...I should have the huge haul in a couple of days. HSN has a warehouse in Fontana, so I get that stuff super quick. However, ordered some boots the same day as these dies and they are still in transit from NJ!! Ugh. I'm excited to get the new stuff, it's pretty much everything AG and CC brought! LOL! The special was kind of expensive, no? I don't know what that was about. Is the value there? Maybe. I'm a collector so I picked it up, but i think it should have been around $99.
I AM WATCHING HSN NOW AND I STILL AM NOT SOLD ON THIS KIND OF DIE EVEN WITH SARA SAYING MORE ARE ON THE WAY. FOR THE BOX I DO NOT CARE THAT YOU HAVE TO USE A SCOREBOARD TO MAKE THE SIDES. ALSO I THINK IN NOV. THAT THERE WILL BE A SMALLER EMPRESS JUST LIKE THE GEMINI JR. WE WILL SEE. DAWN IN TEXAS.
Yeah, I kept the flower ones but haven't used them again. I think these are going back, and I'm not sure if I'm going to keep the ones that are on the way. Hmmm, I just don't know. I don't think "they have set the industry on fire" like Sara has said many times. I don't see anyone else attempting it! LOL!

Just purchased the square one - heavily discounted - and needed to know how to use it. I need to get the cutting plates. 💙
Your nails are gorgeous! I have been a nail girl for 30+ years!! I love all your tutorials, and in my head, we are best friends!!!
Awww, Stephanie! That's so kind! Thank you! I have two best friends in real life and one is named Stephanie (Steph, of course)!

Thank you!! (;
Gorgeous nails! Love your videos. Thankful for your honesty
Thank you so very much!!
Kudos to you for adding the fractions in your head! I’m a math teacher. You’d be surprised how many can’t add 1/8+ 3/4.

Oh, wow! Sounds gorgeous! I'm sure they will love the bracelets and the packaging! Yes, these are great for jewelry items...that's about it! (:
Adding the acetate center is an excellent idea for this box. It turned out great.
Thank you so much!! You can make these extensions any size really! I think it will be lovely for the square and rectangle ones.
It turned out so cute! I love the floral embossing. So cute!
TY!!
Girl your stash must be simple massive and amazing lol awesome haul tho !! Tfs
It's ridiculous, but at least I'm using it now. Normally, like we all do, I buy and store! LOL!
I’d love to see it all in a video.

I would use the cute little box to give a necklace or even fold up some cash as a gift lol
That would be especially fun for cash! TY!
The acetate does make it more worthwhile and useful. Thanks!
TY! Happy to help!

Very nice so glad that you do the math-hugs
I looove math! I really do, especially algebra. Thanks so much!!
Your mail are gorgeous
That box is really cute V, but a bit too pricey for my taste and for how often I’d use it. Hugz
I'm with you, if the price was closer to $15-$20...maybe.

The box turned out nicely, but ya, prob out of my price comfort zone! Lol
They are a bit pricey, and it seems there is no rhyme or reason why they are all priced the same even though they vary in what's in each set.
They always make products designed for their cutting machines. Laughable really. I like your haul. What do you store in these? Lol
In these tiny boxes? Some mints? (:
@@VianneyCreatesprobably 6 pennies the amount of my bank account after the craft day lol
I know that's right! LOL!!
