IMPORTANT: Using Stitched Rectangle Dies - Stampin' Up! and Sizzix departed their friendship sometime between 2019-2020 Catalog and 2021-2022 Catalog. That is when Stampin' Up! started to sell their own "Stitched Rectangle Dies". The dies I own are made by Sizzix and have the item number 148551 stamped into dies. If your set has the item number 151820 or does not have a item number stamped into the die, your dies my differ slightly in size. I don't own both sets so I can't compare the two. To make a long story short, your dies might not be the exact same size as mine and therefore my measurements may differ.
