This year at CHA, when I first got to see the NEW Tim Holtz Hipster Dies & Stamps, I was totally in love! I was a huge fan of the Crazy Dogs & Cats, but I like these ones even more. I would highly recommend buying one of our bundle deals on these. We have a few choices, but my favorite is the Mini Cutter & Hipster Dies w/ Stamps Bundle because you have everything you need (except the paper and ink) to complete these projects. I’ll discuss the other bundle options later in the post.
Long story short, I made a few cards so I’m sharing my Sizzix Hipster project ideas:
I made both cards using the CGull Mini Die cutting machine (the dies fit perfectly)! The Hipster Cat card is a 4.25″ square card. My favorite of the whole Sizzix Hipster collection is the Chimp Die. I just love this guy! I’ll definitely be using this die set again. This card is 4″ x 6″. Both of them were super easy to create.
Update: As promised, here is the tutorial video of the project:
Sizzix Hipster Designs
Upon its recent release, the Hipster collection included 5 different designs:
- Goat Hipster dies
- Ostrich Hipster dies
- Chimp Hipster dies
- Cat Hipster dies
- Bird Hipster dies
- Hipster Stamp Set
We hope Mr. Tim Holtz will add more die sets to the collection sometime down the road. All of these dies are compatible with Sizzix Big Shot machines.
Hipster Bundles

We have a few options for you. If you just want the dies and don’t care about the stamps, just get the Hipster Dies bundle. You may already have the stamps, or you may not want them. Crafters who are more skilled artists like to draw their own images.
If you are not an artist, go with the Hipster Dies and Stamps bundle, which includes all five Hipster dies and the stamp set. Our best deal, however, is the Mini Die-Cutter & Hipster Dies w/ Stamps bundle (click on the image link). This bundle includes the CGull Mini Die Cutter, an Acrylic Stamp Mount, the dies, and the stamps. This bundle is only available from CraftDirect.com.
If you want to share your Hipster Project Ideas with me, please post them on our Facebook page. I can’t wait to see how yours turns out! This is the best place to buy Sizzix dies online, so grab a few while you’re here. No matter what brand of craft rubber stamps you prefer, we have you covered.
Happy creating!
