Question Heart Framelits - SU vs. Spellbinders

Does anyone know how these two sets compare in size and shape?

Thanks in advance.

When you reply to nibs's questions, I hope you will add other details like where the cutting part of the die actually is and the ease of cutting with both products.

Oops, it is SU vs. Sizzix (not Spellbinders)

I found the following info on the two websites:

Sizzix Framelits Dies 6/Pkg-Hearts
These die-cut shapes measure approximately 1" x 7/8", 1 7/8" x 1 1/2", 2 3/4" x 2 3/8", 3 1/2" x 3", 4 1/2" x 3 7/8" and 5 3/8" x 4 1/2".


Stampin Up - Hearts Collection Framelits Dies

Largest heart is approximately 5-1/4" wide. Collection includes 6 dies

I tried to match the Nesties up to the SU stamps but apparently they are different shapes. So now I have two different sets!

Good to know nesties don't match up to the SU stamps. So now I know I need to buy the SU dies to go with the stamp set. Want to use them for bridal shower favors.

I looked at the hearts on the Sizzix website and the SU ones seem "fatter" if that makes sense, like wider at both curves on top. Also important to note the largets SU die is scalloped. I wish there was a whole scalloped set! :-)

The SU framelits are very easy to use and cut great. They pretty much work and look like nesties. There is a smooth side and a cutting side with a little raised blade.....HTH!

The inside edge of the die is where the die will cut. I think I saw on someone's website a demo tutorial on how to emboss a frame. Can't remember whose but it was a SU demo.

The Spellbinder cut between the width of the die.

Default Heart collection dies

Is there a list anywhere of the retired and current stamps that go with the heart dies?
