I am very excited to purchase this tool, I love my electric Sizzix
big shot express but now that Tim Holtz has designed the Sizzix Vagabond I might be ebaying my old Sizzix.
The Sizzix Vagabond is rumored to begin shipping in September, and I have not found any websites that are taking orders yet. When the Sizzix Vagabond is finally released I expect it will be difficult to get my hands on one because it will probably sell out very quickly.
What is the Sizzix Vagabond
The Sizzix Vagabond is the newest Tim Holtz creation and the newest in the long line of great Sizzix tools. The new Sizzix Vagabond will come with many new features but the feature that I am most excited about is the portability.
Sizzix.com has this 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?
Tim Holtz said this about the Sizzix Vagabond
“the vagabond is a personal die cut machine unlike anything you have ever seen before, and trust me when i say it works like no other machine too. this portable, fully electric motorized machine, makes die cutting and embossing incredibly simple and truly limitless.
i wanted a machine that was more powerful than any machine out in the market.
why??? simple, i want it to cut and emboss thicker materials like grungeboard, chipboard, bookboard, metal, canvas, acrylic in addition to layers of cardstock, grungepaper, and fabrics. this powerhouse not only cuts with ease, but embosses full sheets of grungeboard and chipboard with out any hesitation…
of course not only did this machine have to work like no other, it needed to look the part too.
that’s where the challenges really came in and everyone at sizzix did an amazing job in sharing the same creative visions – thank you so much! i designed a machine to resembles a vintage suitcase that has traveled the world with it’s unique hardware, nostalgic texture, and distressed finish.
i designed a machine that looked artful enough to leave out yet entirely compact so it wouldn’t take up much space.
i designed a machine that could cut and emboss any art medium i wanted to use so i wasn’t limited to just paper.
the vagabond is truly everything i imagined it to be…
so i leave you with a few photos of the cool hand-sketched, vintage suitcase styled packaging it will come in (shipping late september), and of course the machine both opened and closed.
as you can see we’ve made quite a few changes since it’s earlier debut including collapsible guide rails, antiqued texture and finish (it even comes with themed luggage stickers you can put on your machine), and a quiet motor you have to hear to believe.
i am beyond excited to share with you, the long awaited release of the new vagabond machine – i just can’t wait to show you all it can do! i’ll be posting videos from the cha show next week so stay tuned! …t!m”
