I finally got the Floral Ovals die set from Spellbinders. This one and Splendid Circles are perfect for paper embroidery, as you don't have to do the piercing. I only did embroidery on opposing ends as the embellishments would be covering the other sides. One of which is a butterfly from Prima, the other is flowers that I stamped and fussy cut from c/s that I dyed with alcohol inks. Added some crystals and leaves, and placed all of this on a glittery bg. If you can get these packs of glitter c/s from DCWV, they are great, the glitter isn't messy and they die cut nicely, though not so well in the more intricate cuts.

Having all the holes already punched sure helps. But I have learned how to do some of the regular dies. You will be getting one for your BD. And eventually I will get the other two uploaded.
