These stitched dies, above and below, are sets I recently ordered from ebay. The two dies above have eight nesting dies each, and the heart below has ten nesting dies. The top two sets are fine, but the have a close look at the heart ones and you will see it has a funny piece of metal around the inside of most of the die. This causes an indent mark when you cut it out. I don't like it!!
You can see it better on the photo below. I contacted the seller asking for a refund, which I promptly got. As well as that, she said to keep the dies and don't send them back! So they have ended up being free😊 I will find a way of using them without the indent appearing on my card. Watch this space to see what I do!!
If you look at the heart die below, you can see it doesn't have the metal piece that makes the indent on your card. These are my Nestabilities that I have had for years.
It is beyond a joke having to wash in a small hand basin every day, or to boil the kettle 25 times to fill up the bath with enough hot water to have a (very shallow) bath!!!! I kid you not!! The latest update from Vector is, it will be fixed by Friday. We will see! My close neighbours are in the same predicament - we are sick of it😣😣😣.
Have a SUNSHINE day! {HUGS} from me to YOU:-)
I've had that problem with dies once in awhile. After you cut out a heart, try putting it inside a folded piece of computer/printer paper and then run it back through your die-cutting machine between the plates. That might help flatten it. Or rub the back of the die cut with a bone folder. Or just add extra embellishment! :) I'm sure you'll find a creative solution. And I hope your hot water is back soon!
