    Hi Sarah! I watched this the same day you posted but wasn’t feeling well that day and forgot to comment. I really enjoyed the review. I have the big shot, side kick, and two of the Gemini’s ( because the cranking put too much pressure on my head) But I love them all. Thanks again for sharing this with us. I love 💗 your channel xoxo, Tai

    I have the reg big shot and the first time I used it I had a legit heart attack thinking I broke it bc of the noise it made. I called Jennie in craft creation almost in tears asking her if I broke it 😂😂😂 I don’t think I would go bigger than the one I have buttt I’m really curious of the Gemini tho. Cuz the cranking when cutting tons of dies gets a lil tedious. I’ve thought about getting a lil one so I don’t have to always pull out the big boy when just die cutting a small bow or flower. And I really like the suction on the lil ones too. I’m guilty of hoarding lots of dies I think I’m now up to like a hundred plus dies and I’ve only had my machine for about 6 months 😂 Tfs crafty hugs 🤗

    • @CraftingandRelaxing

      So many funny things!! Yeah, no one says...if u think u broke it you’re doing it right. I think I might like a Gemini, but the noise?? Sidekick is so great. Of course, TM prices make things better. 😂

    • @ArtsyAshley
      @ArtsyAshley 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Crafting and Relaxing unfortunately I paid $80 for mine bc I didn’t kno about TM at that time lol I have 3 lil aliens that I produced that run around my house screaming like maniacs so I don’t think a lil noise from a machine will bother me so much. 😂😂

    Thanks for the review Sarah! I have the sidekick as well and recently received the Gemini as a gift. The sidekick is definitely a lot easier to manage and the Gemini is quite heavy especially if you don't have a permanent home for it. I still love em' both. They each have a job and perform them very well. Thanks for sharing.

    • @CraftingandRelaxing

    Hi Sarah great review. I have the Big Kick, the large Gemini and the Tim Bolts side kick. I love them all for different uses. I have been wanting the extra large pro for my steel rule dies. I have a few that are to big for my Big Kick. But it is a really big machine I see your point. I have On my check off list for videos doing a quick video on thin metal dies and steel rule dies. This video you just did is very helpful thank you. 💙🌺💙 I will be making a video On the absolutely beautiful card you sent me you made my day thank you. 😊

    • @CraftingandRelaxing
      @CraftingandRelaxing  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      So glad you liked your card!! Sorry it was late. I would love be to see that video. Creative Gigi uses giant dies in the Big Shot, then traces and fussy cuts the rest of the shape. I’m not a fussy cutter, but it might be worth a try. 😀 💙💙💙💙

    Hi Sarah, I was contemplating investing on the Big Shot Plus and this video helped me a lot. I have the teal Sizzix Big Shot and I love it, I use it all the time, so now I feel no need to spend on the Bigger one as I really have not use for it... lol. Thanks a lot for this video. Blessings

    Great comparison video. As a card maker I love the ability to do embossing folders also, so would vote for the big shot over the side kick.

    • @CraftingandRelaxing
      @CraftingandRelaxing  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      There are embossing folders for the sidekick too, but they aren’t A2 size. 😂😂 I never use embossing folders. Maybe I’m weird. 😊

    @christinelazarides8916 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great review, I have the middle big shot, a cuttlebug, and a big Gemini, I think big shot 6 inch bed works best, might look for the sidekick too, TFS.

    • @CraftingandRelaxing
      @CraftingandRelaxing  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You like the big shot better than Gemini? I’ve never use and electric ones so I’m curious about them. TFW 🌟💙💙🌟💙💙💙

    @CreativeGigi 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    yes I'm a million dies girl 😂😂😂 Very useful video love it 👍 I have the standard bigshot and I looooooooove it 💗 probably I have 4 or 5 dies which don't fit in my bigshot(the very large ones in some sets) but I still use them by tracing them with a pencil and fussy cut them 😂

    • @CraftingandRelaxing
      @CraftingandRelaxing  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s a really good tip!! The bigger machine is so much $$, heavy and not fun to use. 💙💙💙

      @@CraftingandRelaxing Yes, I've been scrapbooking for about 20 years, (on and off). I also bought cards that dont fit in the Bigshot so I always end up having to cut them down🤔😜

    I have both the Crossover (full sized) and the Baby Blue (size of yout Tim Holtz) by Tattered Lace. They are both great machines but thr Baby Blue is my favorite, so tiny and versitile. I get disappointed when dies are too big. 😂

      Yes it is, a beautiful dark blue with flower outlines. www.joann.com/tattered-lace-baby-blue-die-cutting-machine/15064140.html I got mine a few years ago from Create and Craft on special with a lot of extras.

    can't find the Tim Holtz for less than 40+. do you have a link for the 24.99 price point item?

    • @CraftingandRelaxing
      @CraftingandRelaxing  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sorry, no, that was the Tuesday Morning price and even if you have a Tuesday Morning it’s hit or miss. Keep in mind that this only does small dies so some people prefer to buy a larger die cutter. 💙
