The first video from your channel I ever watched was the original do's and don'ts, when I was getting my first Big Shot and it was the first video that explained ALL the different plates which I was completely confused over. Fantastic that you did it again, I just ordered myself a precision cutting plate :)

I've just found your KZread Chanel & store yesterday. I've been in a crafting crash course since 1pm EST yesterday & have loved every minute of it!!! Your joy is infectious. I deal with chronic pain daily & was just cruising KZread cuz I was having a rough day. After the first video you had me laughing & lifted my spirits! For that alone I want to say Thank You! And wouldn't it be GREAT if I won a Big Shot or a Big Shot Plus Machine!!! Peace & Blessings, Ms. Silk

WOW! Thanks so much for "making sense" of "squishy, knock knock and thud". I have a old Grand Caliper and would love to win a Big Shot, either one. The Big Shots offer so much more. Really enjoy your videos. Your laughter brightens the day.

LOVE YOUR Laugh!! It caught me at the part where you talk about an older video and 300,000 views and now you got me hooked!! LOL Great stuff!!! Thanks for all you do

This is an oldie but a goodie. Thanks for taking the time and keeping us informed. You are amazing to me.

Stacey, I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos! This video was so helpful to me! I decided on the Big Shot Plus after your recommendations! Even though I am a beginner! Thanks for being you! I'm glad I found you!

Honest, objective, chock full of relevant information, and presented by a wonderful woman who truly makes this world a kinder, gentler, better place. Thank you for sharing and caring.

I love your videos. Without a scrapbooking store in town, it's often the only way I hear about new products and learn how to use them. Thank you!

Holy cow, I'm not sure if I am too late but thought I'd try. I watched the first video of the do's and don'ts of the big shot twice before I purchased my machine and I'm thankful you've added an update. Thank you for not "being bought" by manufacturers! Anyway, and wouldn't it be great if I won the Big Shot Plus?? I wish everyone could win...it's an amazing opportunity you're giving two people...thank you for that too!

I've been thinking of getting a Big Shot to replace my old Cuttlebug, and I think you've convinced me of what I need. Thank you.

Thank you SO much for this video, Stacey! I've watched the previous "Do's and Don'ts" and it's so great to see some of the new tools in action!! A Big Shot Plus machine would be simply amazing!

I need a Big Shot Plus !! You always teach me so many things !! I keep re-watching all the videos ! I'm so glad they are on KZread and readily available !

I love your classes. I've learned so much from you and your videos, and I can't thank you enough for this opportunity. I would love a Big Shot Plus.

Thanks for all the great tutorials and that great laugh, I find myself laughing right along with you

Thank you for another great tutorial, Stacey. I hope all these manufacturers understand the effect you have on this industry. You are truly an inspiration to all of us and we are so grateful for your hard work. I would love to have either machine. It's by Sizzix and that's the best in my book.

Wonderful, so much great information, thank you so much for updating this machine. Now I know I would like the big shot plus, it really will do so much more now that they are coming out with product that is wider and longer. Thanks again! Sandy H.

I love you! I live in Poland where there we have to wait ages to get new products. Thank you so much for all your tutorials ! Hugs from Poland!!!!

Stacey getting to sit and watch you is almost as good as taking a class. Sometimes I just sit and listen while I clean the kitchen. Thank you so much for your great videos.

This you tube was very helpful, probably the best one I've ever watched. I've been cutting wafer dies wrong and now I know how to do it the right way.Thank you so much.

I started with the first Sizzix machine years ago. You are so right about all the changes. This was packed full of information. Thank you from everyone.

This Video was extremely helpful to a beginner. I hope that I can do this because it looks like so much fun. I am going to your store now. Thank you for all of these helpful "Do's and Dont's"

My husband walked through the room while I was watching this video, he loved your laugh. He said maybe he like to craft if he could listen to you. lol So I would love the big shot plus, could pass my smaller one down to him and we could craft together. Well maybe not, my craft room is too small. I love learning new things and refreshing myself of the old. Thanks so much for your work.

I have been die cutting for years and still found your video worthwhile......there are always things we can still learn. Thanks for all of your insights. Love the plus machine!

I love all your you tubes, I learn so much from. By watching them you have inspire me try new things and to be more creative. Thank you again Stacy

This was GREAT!!! Thank you so much for the tutorial. It really helps to distinguish the two and how to use them. I would like a Big Shot Plus.

Thank you for explaining how to use all these pads makes cutting and embossing much easier.

Wow! The beauty of the You Tubes is that we can go back and refresh our memories. I love my Sizzix Big Shot but it would be such a treat to win anything much less a Sizzix Plus machine. I count myself a winner anyway by having your informative and enjoyable videos to watch frequently. Thanks to you and all the SMS staff for sharing your beautiful (happy) creations!

Fun to see the update. In fact the Orig. Sizzix video you did a few years ago is how I found you and have been shopping with you and the SMS gals since!!!! Thank you for once again educating us and keeping us laughing. And it would be great if I could be ever so lucky to win A big Shot PLUS Machine. woo hoo

Love the video for the Big Shot and Big Shot Plus. I have the BigShot and would like aBig Shot Plus. I was given two sets of thinlits that you need the Plus for. Now that I am retired, I cannot just run out and buy it. Would be wonderful to win one. Thanks for all the tips on how to use all the accessories. I have the accessories but had forgotten how to use some of them. And the new paper transfers - I have to get them. Beautiful idea. Thanks for all the tips. I will definitely be tuning in again. Stacy you are so nice to share all these tips and hints. Hope I can win a Big Shot Plus but will tune back in regardless of the outcome. This is for Utube 129

What great machines, these are, I really enjoy these tutorials.

Wow what a video, loved it! I did not realize all the different platforms Sizzix made. I would love the Big Shot Plus, but who wouldn't. Thanks for the video.

This video was full of great information. The big shot plus will hopefully be my next new tool. Always enjoy and learn new things from these videos.

This was very informative. Especially about the precision plate and magnetic plate. I have been using them both together since I got them and have since warped a few of my spellbinder dies that are open. Now I know why. Thanks for much for this information. I own a big kick so I would love to win a Big Shot Plus!! Christy

Stacy, thanks for your upfront and honest information about all the products you talk about. As a customer, that is the most appreciative quality in any business! As I already have a Sizzix Big Shot, and even though my chances are lessened asking for the "BIG SHOT PLUS" machine, I would still love to have the BIG SHOT PLUS!!! Thanks Stacy for all you do for the paper crafting world!

Thank you for all of the Do's and Don'ts. I've been really struggling with a larger die that also embosses and you showed me the exact way to get it cut and embossed!! I would love the Big Shot Plus!

This was soooo informative! Thank You Stacy soooo much!

Thanks so much now I know how to use impression pad which I don't have so am ordering it. Willo

Even though I have used a Sizzix Big Shot for many years, you still taught be something new. I wanted to know about the Big Shot Plus and you were very informative. Thanks for a great KZread. Looking forward for you next KZread.

Great update on the Sizzix Big Shot Machine! Your original Do's & Don'ts is how I first found your videos on KZread, and I have been watching and learning ever since. Wouldn't it be great if I won a Big Shot Plus Machine!!

Thank you, Thank you for this tutorial

Would love to own a BigShot Plus real soon. Thanks a million for your tutorials.

Wow, wow wow what an awesome informative youtube. Lots of stuff to learn and you are such a great teacher. Thank you for all the time you spend to help all of us. Wouldn't be great if I won a regular Big Shot Machine. Thanks again, you are awesome and so are all of the SMS guys and gals.

This was an amazingly detailed KZread. I loved it, even though I've been using my Big Shot for years!!! Thanks so much for all your info! I didn't know about that transfer process--I learned a lot and relearned what I already knew! Woohoo Cadoo!!!! You bring smiles to my face!!!

good video, wish I was as happy a person as u seem to be.

I need the largest to use my 4 die cuts I haven't used over 1 1/2 years. please help!

Oh my goodness, Stacey! Thank you so much! The best video yet. I'm sure you have helped so many of us that are new to the Big Shot machine and how it works. I took notes and wrote down the number of this video for future reference. Again, thank you so much!

Thank you so much. I have been using the Big Shot for a long time, but as you said, the tools have changed. You have saved my open dies from being warped. I would love to have a Big shot plus.

So 5 years later you're still making sales I just ordered a knock knock and a squishy

i did not realize sandwiches would be different on plus so thanks for the heads up! Some good reminders too!

Would love to have a big shot plus to make frames and larger favor boxes!

This is the first time I've seen a complete review of the Big Shot Machine....it was great. I have to say, I can't tell you how many times I had to abandon a project or do a fixer to get a big project done...the Big Shot Plus is THE solution. I would love to have it. Great review....no surprise - your tutorials are always so well done. Thanks for this, it was a great idea!

I've been die cutting for a while and I still learned SO MUCH! Thank you for the refresher course, it was very much appreciated.

love the way you "teach," so engaging and fun! :) and it would be great to win the Sizzix Big Shot Plus

Just recently found you on youtube! Love your videos :) can you tell me if the vagabond 2 can do everything that the big shot does?

You are the best of the best. Loved your tutorals and your store is absolutely the best place in Southern California. Loved meeting you and the staff and highly recommend everyone go see. Your favorite fan from Culver City.

I love your watching your videos. it always makes my day a little brighter with your bubbly personality. I learned a lot about the big shot and would love to have one the smaller one. that would make my year.

Great refresher vid Stacey! I still get a kick out of you saying, "the goosh and knock-knock plates"...I'm sure the Sizzix/Ellison people cringe every time they hear that! LOL...And wouldn't it be great if I won a Big Shot Plus Machine!!!??? Happy Scrapping!

It would be nice if the tutorials were broken down into 20 to 30 minute segment there is so much to remember. Even with notes. And referring back to a specific demo would be easier to find. Love your products! Sincerely, Melissa

I learned so much from this video! I have only had my Big Kick for a short time and have been somewhat overwhelmed by all the different dies and plates and what dies go with what plates. Ugh! This has cleared it all up for me. Thank you Stacey! I love those larger embossing folders and would love to win the Big Shot Plus so I could use them!!!

Stacey, Cannot thank you enough for wrapping this up in one video. You may have done one before but I missed it. I was going to use a die to emboss and was concerned that I would have to search for the video...No longer an issue. Love your work!

I just lOve yoUr lauGH, loL!!!

omg that laughing when nothing is funny

Another wonderful informative mini class. I always learn something from you and recommend your youtube channel to my friends. Thank you for explaining the different new platforms and gadgets! Didn't know what they did until watching this! Your a great teacher and I love that you can give your own honest opinions! I trust that! Love your new dies too! If I am a winner, a big shot plus would be great. Your the reason I own a Sizzix brand machine to begin with!

Thank you!!! Thank you!!! I am new to the wonderful world of making cards...and was entirely lost when it came to all of the many platforms/pads to use with all of the many dies available...now I am moving forward with greater enjoyment and confidence. I am so appreciative of your time and expertise in teaching us with patience and humor. I would be so grateful if I were chosen to either of the machines...but if not I am so much more wiser for y our valuable lessons.

Any way to stop the laughing and get on with it already?

Thanks Stacey. we always need a few reminders and I always learn something new. I learned I really want this new machine!

Stacey if it weren't for you I would not have purchased a Big Shot Machine and I Love it and can't thank you enough for all of the tutorial from the first video and now this video. I have learned so much!! You are a doll!!!

Oh what a great tutorial. I didn't know about all those accessories before. I definitely need to go shopping at your store. Love every part of this video :) Thank you!!!

Thank you so much Stacey, I have been going back and forth since I saw Sizzix was going to be coming out with new machines! I have to say, I LOVE your videos! You are always so informative, upbeat, simply a pleasure to watch!! (And boy, wouldn't it be great to win a big shot plus)...lol I really do mean everything I said, your videos bring us so much information on all the new lines, products, supplies, etc... I find and learn something new, out of every video you post! Thank you so much for all your wonderful videos! Candi~

I am so glad I watched this because I have the big shot plus and was wondering why my open dies were warping. Now I know. Lesson learned for me. So informative for me and always love watching your videos.

I want a BIG SHOT! Ever I since I saw you use it when I first started watching scrapmadesimple, I wanted one, but I already had a Cuttlebug. Now, after seeing this, I am absolutely amazed at all the things it can do and I want one even more!

You Rock Stacey!!! You add so much happiness to the scrappers out here. We might live far away but its so refreshing to see you again and again . Pick me Pick me from Chicora Pa...God Bless

Wow! Very informative! I've been dreaming of a Big Shot Plus! So many things you can do and I love that it is so much larger! Thank you Stacy for this awesome video! 💕

Yes it was a long video, but so informative. I really learned a lot.Thanks for being such a good teacher. I live so far away in Upper Peninsula of Michigan and will probably never meet you but I feel you are my teacher and i really do know you.

This is why I appreciate you, you are using your real experience to help us make our decisions. Thank you.

Stacy, thanks for the updates. I first found you and your store while searching for how to use the multipurpose platform and learned so much from your first KZread. I now watch all of your videos and my friends think I am an expert. I always refer them back to you! I feel as if we are friends and cannot tell you how much you have added to my crafting expertise. Thank you seems so inadequate.

Wow! That was a lot to cover. Much of it was review but quite a bit was all new. I especially enjoyed the Transfer Pad/Sheet demonstration. I would be happy to win the Big Shot. Thanks Stacy

Thank you Stacey for taking the time to update us on all the new tools we can use with our machines. I would love a new big shot.

Love your video's and now I understand the differences of my two machines!! I love using them both for larger folders and dies and my old standby's that I have had for awhile!

I cannot tell you how much you have helped me! I have so much product and I did not know what to do with it but thanks to you, I finally know what to do with it. Yes, my pocket is lighter but at least I can craft with confidence. The bad thing is, we cannot stop buying from your store! Oh well, off to buy more from your store! Thanks!

I thoroughly enjoyed your last do's and dont's video, however, this one has helped me immensely as to which machine to purchase, I love the Big Shot Plus machine, thank you so much for ALL your informative videos and your laughter, I love them you make crafting a lot of fun Stacey!!!

What an informative video. You did not even stop for a glass of water. You go girl!!!!! Thanks for the lesson.

I love your videos. You give a great deal of knowledge in each video. If I were starting from scratch or I'm an experienced crafter, your channel is the one to watch! I couldn't imagine winning a Big Shot. What a treat that will be for one of your wonderful friends/customers. Thanks for the great videos.

I was up to midnight watching and taking notes but that alarm clock rings loud in the morning so I will have to listen to the last half hour of the video today. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the wonderful tips and tricks!! You really help a lot of people with your videos!! And boy would it be nice to own the Big Shot Plus! The more room for cutting and embossing the better! Now I have to go watch the rest of the video and the other video...and no alarm will ring tomorrow! Yay!!

I had so many questions, now I think I have most of the answers. Kinda long, but well worth the time. Thank you Stacy and all the SMS staff.

WOW!! Thank you so much for explaining the different uses of all the plates and techniques. I just purchased my Big Shot and really appreciate you taking the time to demo all this machine is capable of doing. Can't wait to get started. I would love to win the Big Shot Plus. Thanks again for sharing.

l thought your last video you did on the big shot 3 yrs ago was all l needed because as always you fill us with great information but l was so wrong. l found out so many more tips this time around. thank you for taking the time to teach as we are never too old to learn😉. l saved this one in my favorites so l can refer back. As much as l like the Big shot Plus l'm still loving my basic Bigshot. Thanks for the great give away!!

Thank you Stacie!!! Another great video! I always learn something new when I watch your videos. I am putting the Big Shot Plus on my Christmas wish list.

I used the Cuttlebug for years and while I liked it, I just didn't use it because it wasn't very versatile or there was just too much guess work in figuring out the sandwiches. So, I too, chuckled, when you referred to the cuttlebug!! I would love a Sizzix plus machine. Thank you for your honesty and integrity as well, it is so appreciated! If you sold cars, I would buy one from you!

The wait is over just watched #129 and took pages of notes! Just everything I needed to hear about the big shot plus which j have ordered and am waiting to receive. Soooo it would be extra special to win one☺️ thank you so much for this class I feel so much better and prepared now.

This is my second comment. I got so mixed up on which plate to use for want. I watched your video twice and was able to make an outline. Now I can just glance at the outline and know exactly what to do. Thank you so much!!

Ditto from me...love the refresher and the squishy and knock-knock pads! Keep us informed Stacey!

Thank you so much - very timely update! I have been trying to decide whether the start saving for the Big Shot Plus - sure would be awesome to win one!

I've borrowed my daughters Big Shot machine . Looking forward to your next you tube video, probably later today seeing as it is almost 5 a.m. where I live. Thanks Stacey!

Stacey, Stacey, What a teaching video...I learned something new....to see you use the Big Shots on the Craft Sheet and how your Big Shot Machine did not move...I just love how it works....Gonna claim either one of the Big Shots, not choicey....Keep up the great job you do....Love watching you.....Happy Labor Day Weekend!!!!...

This was a great tutorial , (even though it is a bit long ,LOL, ) but I don't mind I love to watch your tutorials. I love the new big shot plus it looks great, I would love one. Once again Stacy many thanks for what you teach me
