Using a SIZZIX BIG SHOT to Make Genuine Cow Hide Leather Earrings | Cow Print Leather Earrings

- Hey guys! This was such a fun video to film. LITERALLY my first time ever using a Sizzix and I was NOT disappointed. The only thing I did not leave in the video was me using an exacto knife to get out the small leather chunks that got lodged in between the blades and the foam between each cut. So just be aware of that if you are cutting thick leather and using these dies, you have to clean them out in between each cut to get perfect crisp cuts every time.
Leave me a comment down below and let me know what you think!

They turned out great and its normal for the cutting plates to get marked, they also warp overtime, so turn them over and cut from both sides to even out the cutting pressure.
I'm sure 2 years later by now you've got the full hang of the die cutting/embossing machine. When you first et up the platform as part of the sandwich I started to say NOOOOO. But of course you were in the learn as you go stage. And by now you as well as most of us know steel rule dies don't use the platform as they are thick. Now for those who may not know there are a number of different cutting plates. I've been watching people use metal die cutting plates not flimsy ones but Sizzix makes a super sturdy not a shim die cutting plate. Though it works great for cutting steel rule dies I do worry it also might dull the cutting edge quicker too. But I do use it for a lot of projects and it saves my plates. My favorite save cutting plates however is the miracle cutting sheet/plate. It's a bit thinner I believe 3mm maybe only 2mm thick cutting like mat. Similar to your cutting mats used for years in sewing they are sold for working with craft knife work too. Anyway I've found cheap mats on line and at stores that also are only 3mm thick or thinner than the more expensive versions. And they work too. You can heat them up with hot tap water and or heat gun or hot summer sun and these mats return to flat and are used a long time. I'm using a new one to cut into with my steel rule dies and saving it just for them. I also flip my cutting plate a lot and don't cut into that plate. The key a lot of us learn over time is to use one plate always to cut into and one as your top or non cut plate on any sandwich for any machine to save plates. Once you have a well worn and even warpped plate it's time to put the old top plate into cutting position that you do flip each time you run it through and a new plate becomes the top plate. But if you use the miracle or similar cutting mat as the cut into mat you can save lots on buying new plates. As Jennifer McGuire said on one of her videos I happened upon she's been using them and one for well over a year not having to buy a new plate. So I'm a huge fan of DIY and if you can find a thin enough cutting mat at the dollar store etc. If it's too big maybe you have the means to cut it down to fit plate size. I've done that and done it with the more expensive miracle mats too. I once needed a smaller mat for a smaller machine and only had a new large one for my Platinum 8.5" machine. I did I cut it down. Normally I wouldn't want to but now and again you can talk yourself into that and turned out just fine. I ended up with a slightly larger piece but fit my smaller Platinum too perfectly and I cut that in two and had two lovely mats for the smaller machine while I still used the itty piece I was after for a Tim Holtz mini machine I was taking on a trip with me. Had a huge project to get through and the dies were small so I wanted to enjoy using the mini but take advantage of the miracle mat too. Worked out perfectly. I love how your video progressed. We all got to learn as you learned too. Thank you and so appreciate all of you who make these videos.
So when using the Mat do you add it between the clear or instead of the clear top?
The earrings came out so good. What a neat project.
FYI, you can fold or layer your material and cut two at once
I used a ''silver'' marking pen from fabric department at W/mart -- outline the blades on your dies - this will help lining up the fabric - and use a dental pick for getting down in between the blades and rubber matting to pull out loose threads - you can also have custom dies made through - Custom Shape Pros - however wait for their discount codes - as they are pricey
Great idea! Thank you!
I love this! My favorite are the black and white feather ones. I'll have to try out that type of tool some day!
Ohhhh how cute!!!! Love these!!!!!
Those earrings are gorgeous!
I want to get one of these machines and I have been researching them and I came across you trying it. Your video is the best so far with you experimenting with it using leather.
They come out really cute 😊
Loved the earrings!!!
I use to own a cricut cuttlebug, it's similar to the big shot. It's normal for it to leave marks on the clear plates.
Hey those came out so cute!!
Wow what a great idea. I would like to see more videos on what you come up with. I have one of those cutters from scrap booking days and would love to use for other things.
Definitely! My friend used hers to make cards!
Kayla yes it is normal to mar the clear plates. You did it correctly. I love how they came out.
I was about to say the same thing. The first time I used it to make bows I also thought I had done something wrong.
I came here to find out if marking after one use of a thinlet was normal. Really reassuring to read that it is. Thank you!
They turned out great. Would love to see one on hair bows as well.
Wow such cute earrings. You inspired me.
Luvvvvv them !!!
The earrings are beautiful xxx
That is the way it does. That plate will be your cutting plate.
You can back it up and go back through for a better cut, if needed,
Oh gosh now I need to run to Michaels for this little machine 😂 perfect cut!!
😂😂 use a coupon!
I really don't think a cricut would've cut the corners that sharp!
Very nice!
Thank you
That machine is similar to the Accu-Quilt Go. Very nice.
I did see some videos where people used this to cut out their quilt squares!
It’s normal for the cutting board to get marked
Hey girly quick question since I’m so new to this and want to purchase a hat machine like this ! so just wondering is this ink stickers peal off easily ?
Can two dies go into the machine? If so would buying two same patterns to run through the machine?
It is very normal for the clear cutting plate to get scratched.
❤❤❤ can it cut wood also
Boy did you help me!! I just bought me one too and clueless until I found you!! Thanks so much! Can I ask where you got your real cow hide leather with hair? I have purses that they would be beautiful with!! Thanks in advance!
Thank you so much Lynn! I got them from a shop on Etsy!
Ive been looking into getting one of those to do hair bows. Lol my cricut cuts like garbage but the die plates are so expensive 🥴🥴🥴
I know! I just keep telling myself I only need to sell 2-3 of them to pay for the die lol
Can you tell me if it would cut a double layer of leather? I want to glue two pieces together for a more substantial piece.
I'm not sure! I've never done two layers. It seems like it would though!
Love your video! However the dies seem to be very expensive :(
have you tried cutting cowhide on your cricut
I have not yet! I do plan on doing a video comparing this with the Cricut :)
Do the jewelry does come with the machine?
No I made those with the machine 🙂
@@KaylaKrische I meant the dies. Sorry about the typo. Where do you find those dies for it or do they come with it?
@@debbiekim3930 oh I'm sorry! No I purchased those separately. The ones in this video I found on Etsy.
Sorry for Al the questions but are the dies specifically made for Sizzix or can you use any kind. I loved all your shapes but couldn’t find any like that when I looked. I will search again. Thanks for all the info. Yours were awesome!
