Memory Box Dies - How do I get the paper out?

Dryer sheets- check! If those are not on hand, try wax paper.

Then there is the proprietary stuff: scrapbook companies make specially sized small rolls of wax paper with designs on it so you can use it on your page after ejection- try Couture Creations, an OZ-based company. Also of benefit: a little roller with a brush end (try Sizzix) which comes with a foam pad. You roll the brush over the back of the die and the mulitiple fibre ends help to eject the diecut. Good luck!

ETA: link in DinCA's post below. Spellbinders makes a similar multi-tool with pokey ends as well. 

This is a tool you could pick up. It works really well and fast!

Unfortunately, it's sold out right now but they will get it back in stock. I've seen it at Hobby Lobby, though. Michaels might have it, too. Also, if you want to see a demo, here's a youtube video:

I used to use the "throw it on your desk a few times" technique mentioned by @eddie-and-Harley. It's a good technique for relieving frustration. Recently I've started using a piece of washi tape to pull the die cut from the die. Works fine but doesn't have the same feel as pitching the die across the room!

Thanks for this thread!

I've all but abandons a bunch of really intricate Spellbinder dies because I can't get the paper out of them without ruining the diecut.

Now I know to use wax paper between the cardstock & die.

And I think I wanna get that handy dandy Sizzix tool to get the little pieces of paper gone.

Washi is my go-to method for getting paper out of dies. I make sure it isn't super sticky (you know, for washi tape) or stick it to my skin first to remove some of the tack. Otherwise it can be hard to remove the tape from the die cut cleanly.
