Ramblings: Several Views on Cutting Dies

Hello everyone~

We have for a long time been giving tutorials on using cutting dies to make cards. Or shared a lot of beautiful cards made with cutting dies. Then now it has come to the pre-Thanksgiving. I also want to take advantage of this time to share what I think cutting dies have brought to our lives.

Undoubtedly, our way of life has changed dramatically with the development of the information age. Such developments have brought us closer together on the web. We don't need to wait until the holiday to hand deliver a greeting card, just simply send a message on the phone. But the actual communication and contact between us have been reduced to a certain extent. We need to go into our own lives so that our society can have a healthy development. We also need music, art, and other arts to enrich our spiritual world. And cutting dies is one of them.

In this blog, we may show you some effects or benefits of using cutting dies.

1. Give your eyes a vacation from the screen

We all need to spend a lot of time every day looking at computer screens and cell phone screens. But we all know that this is a very unhealthy habit. Too much screen time is not good for your physical and mental health. Sure, we can watch TV, play games, read the news and communicate quickly through our digital devices. But are we sacrificing our health and well-being for entertainment, convenience, and productivity? It can have a bad effect on our sleep habits. So we need to set aside some of our time to do something else that makes sense.

2. What does the cutting die bring to us?

How long has it been since we have had a full period of rest? In the long stream of society, our free time gradually becomes fragmented. However, we can go and try to make some small cards with cutting dies on weekends. Crafts allow you to focus on the present moment and distract you from the stresses and problems of work.

Every one of us was born a creator. It's just that the stresses life puts on us keep us from unleashing our inspiration properly. Creating something with your own hands fosters pride and satisfaction, as well as psychological benefits. When you do something, you feel productive and the self-expression of crafting can even help us get rid of negative thoughts or experiences. When making craft projects, you become immersed in your world.

In the convenient world of one-stop shopping, it's important to take the time to make something special, personal and handmade. Sometimes handmade gifts are more than just something you just bought online. For example, you can send your girlfriend a greeting card every year for Valentine's Day using Valentine's cutting dies. You can use some of the life&art cutting dies to create scenes that will fill you with memories as a way to document your life. Our website also offers many celebration cutting dies that you can use to send holiday wishes to your family and friends。

Handmade self-expression is not only valuable but necessary. It is best to build relationships with friends and family. It's also good for your health and well-being. Even teach your children something you love or work in peaceful solitude. It's time to put down the phone and start making dies! Our website contains almost everything you need to make cards with the equipment you need. You can buy cutting dies, liquid glue, cardstock, and even a cutting machine from us.
