Do any of you have great memories or better Google skills than me? After cutting out a title I decided I should cut samples of my fonts so I know what I have. Years ago I took all of my dies out of the long cases they came in and lined them up in an Iris box. Only two fonts have the name printed on the label. I think I’ve figured out most of the rest but two are puzzling me. The bottom left and far right on the third row are the two I have no clue about. I have seen that there are tons of Sizzlits on eBay for a tiny fraction of what I paid for some of mine. The first two sets I bought were $149 each!! And I will never buy an electronic cutting machine because I’ve invested so much in my Sizzix stuff!! Thanks for any help!

I just searched eBay listings and found my answer!
If anyone is curious the fonts are (left to right top to bottom): Bounce, Azure, Boxed Brush, Girls Are Weird, Wallflower, Playground, Script, Funky Brush, Fruit Smoothie, Wet Paint and Wingo Zingo! And after seeing many more fonts I’d love to get a few more (Fresh Blossoms, Cute as a Button, and Typeset).
Thanks!

Ooh, I got one right. I remembered Box Brush. I had Girls Are Weird and Playground as well. Glad you got them all ID’d.

These sets keep showing up at some of the Goodwill stores I shop at. I was at one today and there was a brand new (well "old" new ) set of Boxed Brush still in its commercial plastic bubble packaging for $4.99. The original owner never even opened the set. I remember when these were $149.

I remember thinking they were so cool. I loved using them at my LSS.

I wish I would have seen this earlier, I could have helped you but I'm glad you figured it out. I still have all my Sizzlit alphabets, I should cut out examples of each of them like you did to keep track.

I still have all my Sizzlit alphabets, I should cut out examples of each of them like you did to keep track. I did this because of the way they’re stored. I kept forgetting what they look like. After I got all of the names I wrote them on a piece of pink card stock with the color of the die underneath the name and put the tags under the font examples. It turned out cute and is very helpful. I put the paper into a page protector and put it on top of the dies in the case. I need to do the same with all of my other Sizzlit dies.

I need to do the same with all of my other Sizzlit dies. Me too. I need to keep better track of all my dies, It's a miracle I haven't bought any duplicates. The other day I was looking at an idea on Pinterest that used an older die, I wanted to get the die they used and then realized I already own it. That's why I have kept all my dies, I still use them.
