Love this. Has been on my purchase list for months, but your new releases keep me from following through, lol. I just purchased the telephone box set and others. Excited to get. I have more dies of both yours and Sam Calcotts than any other designers. Love your stuff.
I love this die set Helen. I love the box when you made it by hand, but love the dies you designed to make it more simple. I hope to get this die set one day along with a bigger die machine. Hugs, Brenda
I love everything that you create for us crafters Helen! I am contemplating buying this Box set but would like to know what the dimensions of the inner and outer boxes are so I can plan ahead on the contents. Thank you!
Hi Helen, I’ve been wondering for some time when you might make your first appearance on HOCHANDA...well I’m really looking forward to Saturday 1st June 2019 at 8am and noon. I bought your exploding box die set and all your bags, binding and album die sets before finding your blog pages. I have a sneaking feeling the wedding stationery dies will be making their way to me in due course as well. Congratulations on your designing success and good luck for your TV appearances :)
Has anyone else got this die set? I'm just using mine now for the first time. I cut the base square 4 1/8" as instructed and it was too big. Measured the sides of the box and they're only 4". I've trimmed it off to measure 4" and it works. When I put the lid on it's a perfect fit. So not sure how Helen made it work with 4 1/8".
Hi Alison, the best measurement is 4 1/16" - but not all paper trimmers have the 16th of an inch, so it's best to have the larger measurement and trim down if needed
@@HelenGriffinUK Thanks for your response. Yes, mine has 16ths on my trimmer but mine worked best at exactly 4". Many thanks for clarifying. I thought I was going crazy. I even got my 2nd trimmer out to check haha .
Hi Schuree, they can be ordered internationally from Craft Stash - the link is in the description box. They are currently on pre-order at the moment, as they've just sold out again
I am so disappointed in these dies and to me, they are absolutely useless. Why do I say that? Not because I am a mean person or in a bad mood, but because the lid for the main box as well as the side panels are so sharp that they cut THROUGH the paper, no matter if I use 150 grams Cardstock or 300 grams. I tried it with the electric Gemini as well as with the big shot. Every time these two dies cut the paper where they should just make a score line. Because I live in Germany, it was not easy for me in the first place to get my hand on these UK dies (plus I needed to pay a lot for shipping) so what can I do to make the die for the lid of the main box NOT cut, but make fold lines as well as the tabs who should just be scored and not cut. Can anyone assist me, PLEASE?!???

Can you purchase the dies in the USA or Canada? Would love to make them but don't want to wait for international delivery.
