Thinlits are wafer thin chemically etched die templates are designed to cut, emboss or stencil a single sheet of cardstock, paper, metallic foil, cellophane or vellum. They are simple to use, compact and portable for cutting at home or on the go. Use them for enhanced intricacy and to add a special touch of inspiration to all your projects.

Thinlits detailed and intricate dies may require up to three passes to cut. If extra help is needed for easier separation of the die-cut shape from the template, place wax paper between the Thinlits die and your material and then roll through your preferred machine.

It's a good idea that when using any large open designs with long edges to angle it on the die cutting plate. This will give you a more even pressure across the width of the roller and help keep your Framelits and Thinlits flat. If you run the die through the machine lined up straight, then it might bend your dies (which makes it harder to use next time). If curled / bent they are not broken and if you use the die the other way up, it should help flatten out the die.

These die can also emboss when the machine's included platform is combined with an Impressions Pad and Silicone Rubber sheet. The diagrams on the Platform offer easy guidelines about how to make the perfect Sizzix sandwich. All items sold separately. To stencil, place the die over desired material and apply ink or chalk to the die indentations. This technique can be used alone or to enhance embossed designs.

This set includes a handy plastic storage envelope. For easy identification, trim off the printed label and slip into the envelope. 

Package size is 13.5cm x 15.5cm.
