Electric Sizzix
The electric Sizzix line of paper crafting tools have taken so much of the manual labor out of crafting, which has allowed me and so many others to create beautiful pieces of art that would have been near impossible without them.
The electric Sizzix line of tools took a difficult task and made it as easy as the push of a button.
There are three different Electric Sizzix tools on the market and in the works right now these three Electric Sizzix models include
Electric Sizzix Big Shot
The electric Sizzix big shot express is the original in the electric line of sizzix products. I absolutely love the electric Sizzix Big Shot, it has saved my crafting life, I couldn’t use any of the manual powered die cutting and embossing machines anymore because of my arthritis. Then Sizzix released the Big Shot Express and made my life so much easier.
Description
With just the push of a button, the Big Shot Express leaves the crank behind. Instead, this motorized shape-cutting and embossing system quickly cuts even our longest dies in as fast as two seconds, while still being compatible with the entire Sizzix product library, except Bigz Pro dies. If that wasn’t big enough, this ultimate roller machine cuts everything from cardstock to fabric and many things in between. How’s that for keeping current?

Electric Sizzix EClips
The electric Sizzix EClipsis the first digital die cutting machine released from sizzix. It works by placing a cartridge, that conatains pre designed die, into the hand held unit that alows you to customize the size, quantity, and parts of a die.
I dont personally own the electric Sizzix EClips yet, but I have had the opportunity to play around with a demo EClips at CHA, and what can I say it was amazing, you can do so much with this tool.
The electric Sizzix EClips enables you to cut out different dies in different sizes, in whatever color you want but what is really cool about this machine is, you can cut out different parts of each die.
I know this sounds confusing so let me explain.
If you want to cut out a tree die, but you dont want the entire thing to be green, then you specify that you only want to cut out the leave part and you use green paper.
Then you use the hand held control that comes with the electric Sizzix EClips and cut out the base in brown.
The EClips can make our lives so much easier by eliminating intricate cutting

Electric Sizzix Vagabond
There has been lots of talk about the newest member to the electric Sizzix family, the Tim Holtz designed electric Sizzix Vagabondwill be released for sale sometime around September. I cant wait to get my hands on this paper crafting tool, not only does it do everything that the big shot express did, but it is super portable.
Also it is very artistic, which we have come to expect from Tim Holtz, sporting a beat up vintage suitcase look that is wonderful. As a scrap booker I know that it isn’t about how the tool looks its about how it functions, and I expect that the electric Sizzix Vagabond will perform as good as its predecessor the Sizzix Big Shot Express.
Description
Resembling a well-traveled suitcase on the outside, the Vagabond Machine easily opens up to reveal a portable yet powerful machine that takes you to imaginative new places. Upon closer examination, the Vagabond impresses for its uncanny ability to effortlessly cut and emboss many different materials and thicknesses. Can you think of anything better to bring on your creative journey?
Features
- Included with the Vagabond Machine is a pair of Standard Cutting Pads, as well as the Solo Platform & Shim, which make all Sizzix components compatible with the Vagabond Machine. Add a Solo Adapter (sold separately), and the Vagabond Machine can even work with other brands’ dies and embossing tools!
