I've used the rolling pin technic for year before I picked up a Big Shot at a garage sale. Works great, especially if you use a wooden rolling pin. I use painters tape to stick things down. To make the tape less tacky, stick it onto you clothes and pull it up..
This is a perfect solution to big dies with a small machine! Great tip! I love these cards you have created. 🤗🤗
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you so much for sharing
I saw a metal die cut at dollartree and had NO CLUE what it was used for, but I still picked it up...🤭😏 Thank for this video!! Now I'm going to make such cute designs!
Awesome, I am so happy my video helped with your die-cutting! Have fun, TFW

Thanks for watching!
Love the tip for cutting out a die that is too large for my machine. Several years ago I bought a die set even though the largest one doesn't fit in my machine. Now I know I can use it. :) I couldn't find the instructions for the project on your blog. I love it! If you would steer me in the right direction, I would love to make some for Christmas presents for the coming year. Thank you!
TFS. I craft in a small space so won’t get a machine. I would appreciate another tutorial with a smaller die, though I know it cannot be too fussy. Stay well. 💕
This will work the same with any die! You just have to take your time! TFW
I LOVE that card structure! First time I am seeing that design. TFS
Thank you!
Thank you for the die tip! 😊
Happy you liked it! TFW
Thank you for sharing, that helped me so much
I'm so glad! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the tip. Enjoyed watching the projects you made .
Thanks for watching!
Oh how simple. Thank you. I can see how it would be tricky with intricate designs but at least one can start using die cuts until they can get a machine ☺♥
That is a fantastic tip, thank you for sharing. PS - love the scrappy journal. 😘
Thanks so much!
Thank u so much for sharing, great idea.
Thanks for watching!
What a great community. I'm so glad to see this video. I was about to return a very long die because I couldn't use it in my Big Shot. You and your friend may have saved the day! I can't wait to try this.
Awesome, glad my video helped! Thanks for watching!
thank you for this great tip!!! Love your holiday gifts ideas!!!
Thank you 😊

Thank you! Happy it helped. TFW
I can use this tip! Thank you!
TFW 😊
Great tip and beautiful cards
Thanks so much!
Genius. And your little folios are amazing.
Thank you so much!
Wow! What a fantastic tip for cutting papers with an oversized die! I would have never thought of that in a million years! I am off to watch your videos about how to make some of these wonderful pocket folders now! Thank you so much for sharing! 🥰
Thank you! Right? I couldn't believe how easy it was! TFW
Thank you! I was given a bunch of die cuts and dont have a machine so its great to know they are still useable w/o the machine!
Oh yay, now you can use them! TFW
THIS IS GREAT
Thank you 😊
Yes great tip. The paper thickness certainly makes a difference! I tried to do this my first time using cardstock (like 65lb I think).. and it was really hard to do bc it needed more pressure than the thinner paper.
I also tried an intricate die and it didn't work out lol.
The paper certainly makes a difference, also the pressure you use. TFW 😊
This is so cute!! I love this. Could be used for so many things! I’m thinking I might do one for my mom-in- law and fill with pics and notes and drawing from her grandkids!!
Thank you 😊 It is one of those projects that can be used in so many ways. TFW
Great tips hon! Tfs!❤😊
Thanks for watching!
That’s very handy to know TFS
Right? Specially if you don't have a machine to do it! TFW
Oh wow, that is such an awesome tip. I will keep that in mind and pass, it on to others.
TFW :-)
Liz: that is a great tip. Brilliant! Thanks, Carol from California
Thank you! TFW
Really unique! It is a project that I want to try. Thank you.
Thank you 😊 TFW
Miss Liz, thank you for teaching me how to use a cutting die. Have a wonderful day.
I’m happy you found my video helpful! TFW 😊
What a neat trick with the large die!
Thank you!
great tip! thx
Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing this clever technique of using metal dies in this way. Would never of thought of it. I love your projects. 😊
Glad it was helpful! TFW
Thanks, Liz! great ideas. :D
Thank you 😊
What a wonderful idea! I realized after I bought my small machine, that I was going to need a bigger machine. I asked everyone at Christmas one year if they would just donate as opposed to buying presents! This was 20-something years ago, so I'm sure they were much cheaper than they are now.
I'm happy it helped. It did help me for sure, because I don't have the large machine either. TFW :-)
Thank you for sharing this tip. I have friends who don’t have a cutting machine and this would be a godsend for them. Thank you for sharing. 🌹Rosie of Oz🇦🇺 & 🐶Omega the Cavalier🐶
Glad it was helpful! TFW
Thanks so much for sharing this diecutting without a machine technique. I’ve not heard of doing that with any method, so this was really helpful.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Beautiful work you’ve made dear ❤️❤️ thank you so much for the amazing tip it worked perfectly for you ❤️
Thank you 😊 Happy the tip helped! TFW
Wow what a brilliant tip for die cutting. I have a lovely die that I have to cut in two parts and stick together, so will definitely try this out. Thank you for sharing xx
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Bravoooooooooooo super ✨✨✨
Thank you!
This deserves more than a thumb's up. This should get hearts and WOWs!
Thank you so much! :-)
What a fantastic idea! Thanks for sharing. Also, I love your cards.
Thanks so much!
Your die tip HAS to be the TOPPEST tip of 2021!!- aBdoLutELy genius! Can't wait to give it a go! ThankU☺️
Thanks so much Anna. Have fun with your dies!
Great idea, I will be able to use my big die now.
Glad it was helpful! TFW
Thanks fornthe info. Not sure ill ill need it, but its nice to know!
I like that closure. I have a small oval die that I could score, and to cut a slot on the flap would be easy enough.
Thanks for the info. I have some thick dies that won't fit in any of my machines so I'm going to try this out.
Glad I could help, TFW
Thank you so much for sharing. I have one die that I haven’t been able to use because it’s a tad too big for my machine. I’m gonna try this tonight 🙂
I am so happy it helped. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful projects and such a great tip about cutting a large die! I have just subscribed to see more! Thank you 🤩🏆
Thank you 😊
Bellissimo❤❤❤❤
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing as well cause I don’t have the money to buy a machine since they are expensive but I can get dies easy but wasn’t sure how to get them to cut like that. Thank you. Your stuff is amazing btw! Always beautiful stuff!
Thank you, happy to help! TFW
7:50 this is genius! Thank u for the tip, I always wanted to try them but the machines in my country are soo expensive
Thank you! Now you can use those dies! :-) TFW
You made a Mini album Christmas Card. Very great idea!
Thanks so much!
I don't have any large dies, but I may have some soon. 😉 This is a great tip. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! TFW
BRILLIANT thank you and Beverly for this video. You just gained a new Subscriber
Thank you 😊
This is a really great tip. Thanks for sharing Liz. =^^=
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video. I purchased a few dies at a thrift-store but don't have a Big Shot.
Happy it helped! TFW
Great tip for those who don’t have a die cutting machine!
Thank you!
Thank you SO much for this tip! I was able to get on and try out some of the dies I'd got in some crafting magazines. I ended up using a table knife because it was better than my bone folder. Thanks, though! 🙏🏽😃
Glad it was helpful! TFW :-)
This is so smart! I have one die that I would love to cut but my machine won't handle it. Love the albums! On my way to visit your video!!! TFS 💕💕💕
Thank you! TFW
I’ve done this before when I forgot to bring my plastic sleeve for my machine. Great job
Thank you 😊
What a fabulous, ingenious idea! I do have too many die cutting machines; electric, manual and digital! But this, for the starters, or the frugal, or craft groups is an amazing idea! I have just found you; I am now a subscriber, and I look forward to viewing your videos. TFS, have a great Christmas holiday. ❄️🎄
Thank you so much! Happy Holidays :-)
Thank you so much for sharing this! I really didn't want to buy another machine!
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
I have the spellbinders grand caliber die cutting machine that will cut a die that is at least 8 inches wide. I hope you have listed the manufacture of that envelope die is that is really cool! What a wonderful idea, thank you for sharing!
Thank you 😊 Yes I have, it’s in the description box.
Awesome tip on the large dies! I just ordered a die set from Tonic and I knew the larger die would not fit in my machine, I figured I would just trace it and cut by hand, but your tip makes such a nice clean cut! I just wonder if would work on thicker paper (the die I bought makes a large box and it would require thicker paper.) Love your little fold out journal/cards! I’d like to make some! Will view your tutorials! TYFS!! ❤️🦋💜
Thank you 😊 I think it depends how much pressure you use and how much time you have to spend cutting it. 😆 I hope it works for you. TFW
Hi there! Thanks for sharing such an inspirational and useful video! I am only just getting interested in paper crafting so I’m not sure that buying a die cutter would be a good use of money for me (depending on how my interest lasts). Seeing how metal dies can be used without a machine is fantastic! I looked for the link to the video you said you watched about it and could find the link - maybe I looked in the wrong place, though?
Just seen your video as I was scrolling down and I did a very quick "Stop"! I thought 🤔💭🤔💭to myself uhh! I've never seen nor heard of you, so I got not even half way through and thought why haven't I seen you until now❤😊❣ I really needed to see your video last week, I went down to Southern California to spend time with my Sister. I've painted my greeting cards with watercolor paints all my 40 years, when I was flipping through the channels I seen a video of Natasha Foote. Well now I'm back in Utah & all my craft supplies is still at my Sister's home 😢💔🥺 Anyways I am so, very, very happy that this boo-boo was a happy accident just waiting to happen❤😊❣ I am now a Subscribed Card/Everything Crafter🥰❤😊❣ ringing the Bell at full speed every time you have a video. TFS Liz it's an honor to watch you❤😊❣ Hugs from Northern Utah. Xoxo Vicki 😊
Hi, I am so happy you found me! Algorithms are awful for some us, we get hidden and our videos and not very easy to find sometimes. I try to share weekly creative ideas, that have inspired me and I share them with all of you. Welcome to my crafty channel!
That looks so easy, but obviously the paper is very thin. I bought an A4 cutting die when I discovered it on sale... I love your projects, too. First time viewer here.
Thank you! TFW
Oh wow, what a trick. I'm going to give this a try! I don't have a die cut machine, sadly, and won't likely have it for a while!
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
This is really unique I love it. Thank you for sharing. I am new to your channel.
Thanks and welcome!
