Although I have a Cricut Expressions that will cut just about anything I can want or image and I have SCAL (Sure Cuts A Lot) that will allow me to cut anything I can find on the internet, I still love Spellbinders Die Templates.

For one thing they are a 3 in 1 value (well, it says so right on the package).  They allow you to cut, emboss and stencil using only the die cut.  The thing that is really unique is that little extra emboss that you can give the cut after you have cut it out.  It adds that extra dimension that you don’t get with other die cuts.

You can use these with inks, chalks, markers, watercolor pencils and more.  I’m taking the “more” to mean Prismacolor pencils of course!

What you are looking at is three different die templates that I got on sale (at Hobby Lobby).  Notice that little yellow tag in the upper right hand corner.

They were on sale at 40% off and one of them was 50% off.  There is no way I could pass up the sale on these die cut templates.  That is three Spellbinder templates for $21.57 that would normally cost $38.97 plus tax.

But wait there is more………all three of these templates ended up costing me………wait for it, wait for it…………

$11.05!!!!

When I got to the checkout they were even further discounted.  You just never know how good a deal you are getting until you check out.  Thank you Hobby Lobby for that little extra surprise.

Nothing excites you more than when you feel like you found a great deal and was able to take advantage of it, only to find out that you are getting blessed even more.
