Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Gemini machine, and what can I make with it?

Gemini is our range of die cutting and embossing machines. A Gemini machine uses metal dies to cut shapes and embossing folders to add raised patterns to paper and card. Create everything from handmade cards and gift tags to decorations and scrapbook pages.

What’s the difference between a manual and an electric die-cutting machine?

A manual Gemini machine works by turning a handle, while an electric Gemini machine feeds your plates and materials through automatically. Both cut and emboss, but electric models do the winding for you. Additionally you can use LetterPress with our larger electronic Gemini machines.

Which Gemini machine is best for me as a beginner?

The Gemini Mini is a great starting point for smaller projects, while the Gemini Midi offers room for larger projects. For automatic cutting without turning a handle, consider the electric Gemini II.

What tools and accessories do I need to get started with a Gemini machine?

You’ll need paper or card, a compatible die or embossing folder, and the correct plates or cutting folder for your machine. Check your chosen machine’s product description to see which accessories are included.

Can I use dies and embossing folders from other brands with my Gemini machine?

Yes, many thin metal dies and embossing folders from other brands can be used with Gemini machines. Check that their size and thickness are compatible with your model, and always follow the recommended plate combination.
