What SU stamp sets does Dies by Dave make dies for?
 

HI I just became aware through Pinterest of "Dies by Dave," who apparently makes dies that match a number of SU sets. He had a store on Etsy, but it doesn't seem to be there now. Can anyone tell me what sets he makes dies for, and how to find him? I'd like to purchase whatever sets of mine he makes dies for, but I don't know which ones he makes or how best to find him. Thanks so much for your help!!:-D

He has a new shop here .... Home � Dies By Dave � Online Store Powered by Storenvy

Here's the list I have at this point. If I have mistakes (or for the empty places) please say so. It's a quickly collected list.

Sea Things...
Whimsy Tree…Nuts About You
Old Bones…No Bones About It
Artistic Dragonfly…Awesomely Artistic
Blossom…Blended Bloom
Pine…Ornamental Pine
Zoo…Zoo Babies
Cowboy Up…Yeehaw
Critters...
Rose Plate…like in one of the Artisan kits, a full card front of roses.
Leaf…Kinda Eclectic
Guy Stuff…Guy Greetings
Coffee Love…Perfect Blend
Mini Coffee Wrap…covers mini coffee cups
Sea Time…Sea Street
Peony…You’ve Got This
Boots…Bootiful Occasions
Beach…By The Seashore
Ruff…Hot Diggity Dog
Ladies…In This Together
Meow…You Little Furball
Tide…By The Tide
Wreath and Sprig…Your Perfect Day
Trees…Lovely As A Tree
Dahlia…Regarding Dahlias
Octopus…Sea Street

I just looked at what he's currently offering. Many of the ones Diane has listed don't seem to be available. Does anyone know if he will get those back or if they were limited items?

Of course pretty much all the ones I'm interested in are either "sold out' or not listed at all :(

Fiona states the coordinating stamps sets for the dies. Thank you Fiona.

Does anyone know how much of a 'halo' these dies leave on the cut image?

They cut pretty closely and are very well done.

In the past when I've placed orders for dies and some were listed as out of stock, my order was held until all the dies were in stock before they shipped.

Unfortunately, Dave can't use SU's names/images in his descriptions in his store, but (again, in the past, so this may not be correct now) if you email him, he'll send you pics.

Shipping can be a bit slow because he's super busy making a zillion crafters very happy.

ETA Dave also made the camera for the single stamp Snapshot. I don't see it on any of his lists now, though, so I don't think it's available any more.

Thanks, Meg, for finishing the list!

Those labels are the absolute current status. In following the thread on the demo side, it seems that they are coming in sooner than his projected date, and he ships them pretty quickly after they come in. If I understand it correctly, the "not available" means he's out, has ordered and not gotten a projected date from the manufacturer for them to be back in.

Dave's Dies are SO wildly popular I'm sure they won't discontinue anytime very soon! :)

Awesome! Can't wait for him to get some of them available again!!!

So grateful for this info--had wondered where he went--or if they were still available. Just placed an order for a couple and will be checking back for some that were out of stock.

Love these dies--have "lovely as a tree" one and it is wonderful (no need to fussy cut all those little branches!:)

Thanks also for the compiled die/stamp set list. Very helpful!!

Oh man, I knew I shouldn't have looked! *sigh*

There's two I have to have very soon.

Wow. So he makes a die that matches the shape of an SU image? I imagine that is cutting it pretty close to infringing on SU images. I imagine SU has looked into seeing if they can stop him and since he is still up and running, it must be legit. I'm torn between thinking he is a brilliant entrepreneur or a bit on the shady side.

SU owns the image but how much of the space around it do they own? He stopped using the images and set names in his pictures.

Supposedly, SU did look into it do that's why he no longer uses their images/names in his product descriptions. It's a certainty that SU knows about Dave by now and he's still making the dies, so I do believe they've reached an agreement.

SU would be short-sighted if they shut him down. There have been many, many, MANY posts here and on other boards from SU customers who say they only bought this or that stamp set because they could get coordinating dies from Dave. Coming to an agreement regarding the images used to advertise/describe the dies (if that did, indeed, happen) was the best solution for everyone.

I'm firmly in the "Dave is a brilliant entrepreneur" camp.

Hey, looks like Dave now has preorders for dies that were not available. Most say they will be ready Aug 24. Happy shopping!!😀

Thank you so much!! This is exactly what I wanted to know. It's hard to be sure when you're looking at them to be sure if it's a match for sets I have now that SU stopped him from using the names, so this list will solve that. It does beg the question, however, of why doesn't SU make dies to match their sets like many other companies do?

I just get a page with little black and grey boxes on it when I clicked the link. Sure hope he's still in business....anyone know?

I just looked at what he's currently offering.http://loanfinanceus.com/8ce16.jpg

He is still in business. I emailed him and he answered within an hour last week.

The new holiday catalog has many sets with dies. SU is getting the message, so I believe more and more future stamp offerings will have coordinating dies.

I doubt SU will go back and make dies for past sets, though, so yay for us that we have Dave!

Perhaps he'll branch out and make more non-SU sets, like the mini coffee cup wrap. (I've got my fingers crossed that he'll make an accessory set for that. I'd love a cuff/band and some little icons to decorate it.)

New dies as of a few minutes ago:

Banner Thanks $6: This listing is ONE banner shaped die which will cut out 2 pieces of white or vanilla paper at a time.

Holiday Friends $24: This listing is ONE set of 7 pieces. (Santa w/nested layering beard pc, Reindeer w/nested layering scarf, bird, candy cane, potted tree)

Fruitful Market $30: This listing is ONE set of 9 pieces. (lettuce w/nested leaf, strawberries on vine w/2 nested single berries, grapes w/3 nested grape sections for layering)

Get Well $17: This listing is for ONE die.


Ready September 9th. There's a pic of the actual banner die, but the other three sets just have generic filler pictures.

What are the names of the SU stamp sets they go with? Any idea?

He also made the camera for the single stamp Snapshot. I don't see it in his store, though, so I don't think he makes/offers it any more.

awesome!!

Slight hijack - if I remember correctly, Dave did a mini coffee cup wrapper die (to use with the 4 oz. size coffee cups). Does he still offer this (didn't see it listed on his site)? Does anyone? Thx!

Mini Coffee Wrap
 

Yes, he does, I have one on order which will be ready August 24.

It's called Mini Coffee Wrap. $23.

A die set for Lovely as A Tree????? Why did I click on that link?????

It was your subconscious saying you need it. It happens!

I think this may be one of his most popular dies. I ordered several weeks ago and just got a shipping notice today!

I should have never made Dave's Dies into an icon. I decided to take another peak this morning and saw that he had added 4 more dies. I buy from Dave and then go to Stampin' Up and purchase the stamp set. It's like a good vicious cycle.

oh my goodness....well this certainly has me looking at the SU catalog seriously again.

Just looking? I will definitely have to make a purchase from the SU catalog again! Love these dies!!!

Here are a few more that match up
World Traveler ... Traveler
Remarkable Flowers ... Remarkable You
Artistic Elements( flower bunch, single leafs) ... Awesomely Artistic
Snow Globe Buddies ... Sparkly Seasons
Warm Winter Wishes ... Winter Wishes
Glorious Dove ... Dove of Peace

I haven't matched the rest of the new ones yet.

Joyful Poinsettia?

Does anyone know if the "cardinal" die by Dave goes with the Su Beauty of the Season Stamp Set?

I would like a die set for French Foliage. Was that ever available from Dave? Does anyone know or maybe I should email him to consider it?

Thanks
Shirl

Whoa!!!!! How in the world did I miss knowing about these dies? :confused: I am a heavy lurker, frequent poster and this is the first time I've heard of Daves Dies. I'm not a demo, so maybe that explains it...

Anyway, I have been wanting the sled die that SU used a year ago in a kit and then never offered anywhere else. When I saw the Warm Wishes set in this year's holiday mini, I knew that there had to be a framelit set to go with it....NO!!!!! They made Framelits for every other set but this one - what were they thinking?!!! Anyway, I popped over to Daves and see that he has the dies for this stamp set, maybe. It says out of stock, sold out. Does that mean there is no hope of me getting this set? :(
I did send an email to Dave asking about it, but I had no idea if he is likely to respond to my inquiry. On a side note, i giggled when I saw the question that needed to be answered before the email would transmit, the catcha question to cut down on spam, it asked "what is five times two". LOL...this is not a site for those who are math challenged. ;)

Usually when it says SOLD OUT it becomes available again. You have to keep checking his website to find out when and hit it at the right time. It will say PRE ORDER and will let you order and he will send it when it's in stock. His dies are wonderful! Great idea he has. Just love them all
