Which One?

[CatherineM]

I was looking for window dies and found MB, they have Grand Madison and Small Madison but cannot decide which would be a wise buy :confused:. Any comments will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I have the small and it's perfect for cards. If you plan to do larger scrapbook pages, the larger die may be better, but I think the size I have is perfect for cards. The size is 2.4 x 3.25 inches.

The small one would be great for A-2 size cards, but I do 5 x 7 mostly and find the larger one more appropriate.

Thank you Muscrat and GypsyRoseSamper, I will probably go for both since I cannot decide

I have the Grand Madison and it is great when you want to put a scene behind it.

And it makes a very cool French door if you don't mind a little fussiness.

But I don't tend to make lots of A2 cards - I like a bigger canvas.

So easy.....get them both! That is what I did! Oh ---and I also got both window boxes --and the small shutters! Love them all!! Love Memory Box dies!

[CatherineM]

Thank you all for your insights, it's really helpful so much that I ordered both.... I love your cards kajor, they are beautiful, thanks for sharing! I too love MBD

Thanks for the kind words! I am going to order the smaller size too when I have a chance. I also am casting envious eyes on the shutters!

Yes, me too.... the shutters, doors, flower boxes...the list is endless

I recently saw a card where the small one was used as drawers on a chest, with a vase of flowers on top.Never would have thought of that one.

I saw that as well. That was a cool idea! Never would have thought of that myself either!

Can you post a link to it? I did a search on small madison in SCS and could not find it. It sounds very cool!
