It's time to get EXCITED!!!!
Eileen Hull will be releasing Sizzix Book Club Die Collection sometime in the November!!!
The Book Club Collection is so VERSATILE!!!!
It will consist  of 3 Score Boards Dies and 3 sets of Thinlits.
Each die works with the others and the components can also work with dies from other collections, such as the Journal and Passport Book.
Each die may be used in so many ways- on books, cards, gift boxes, home décor projects, and for storage and organization.
Imagine a die that can create a box, a book and a frame all on one die- we have that!
