What are the sizes of the snowflakes? I don't have any of the previous snowflake dies and love the details on these. Looking to get this die set so I can use them on my Christmas cards and name cards.

Look on Susan's blog. She has pictures of the actual dies on the blog.

The largest snowflake is 5 1/4" in diameter, the middle snowflake is 3" and the smallest is 1 5/8". These are the cut sizes--add about 1/4" for the actual size of the dies. And no, the largest snowflake does not fit in the Rev.
So far, this is my favorite set in the release. I've been waiting for a big snowflake for quite a while. They cut beautifully and are nicely intricate. Lovely!

The snowflakes are awesome and I was going to say that I wish I had a use for it in Florida but when I said that about the snowman set, someone just had to go and share a wonderful, awesome way to use it when you live in a warm climate and now I have to have that set and I'm now going to cover my eyes lest you share a way to use it other than SNOW, lol.

Vicki, one challenge at a time! Today I'm working on a way to make that elf boot die a must have! Was it Meg who threw down that glove? Michelle

I have the Snowday Snowman, which is prett much just like the set, and I have used him in Spring cards.
On the front he has a frown with his arms up in the air and he is saying "Oh No!" And on the inside he has melted and the card says "It's Spring"
To make him melt I cut the bottom circle and his carrot nose had fallen off.

What a great idea!
I have that SnowDay snowman, too. I'm curious to see what the difference will be. I know the snowman can be made bigger in the new set.

Vicki; the snowflakes are really great. I love them. I plan to use them to make a Winter shirt to wear to a Christmas party. A few snowflakes and some bling....a shirt I can wear not only for Christmas, but all winter. Maybe a matching jacket who knows.... Cat

at first I said I didn't want this - I have snowflakes on my shilouette and my cricut so do I reeeeeeally need this.
I finially decided I did. I played with it last night and the details are great and that big snowflake - so much fun.
They really are gorgeous. I ran them through my EPIC and ZERO issues cutting the details. Came out perfect. The small ones are perfect for adding a snow flake detail to something - I put it on a stocking. The big one I am invisioning a lot of people utilizing this instead of a doily on their cards. I see lots of potential for this.
Everyone seems to be talking about this one too so I'm betting it wil sell out quickly.

I agree with how nicely they cut. I was using some really thick American Crafts glitter paper for my DT project. I really didn't think it would cut the paper at all. But it went through beautifully! I'm into glitter lately! Michelle
