sizzix plates...

Someone posted in a group that I am in on FB about their Sizzix plates. She was asking about the plates leaving marks on her cardstocks she was cutting. Well, let me tell you from experience, this happens with worn out plates that need replaced. 
I have been using these same plates for about....ummmm....I am going to guess about 4 or 5 years maybe. Hard to remember exactly but the were the original ones I had with my first Big Shot. It then got the Bog Shot Express and now have the Vagabond, so they have seen their better days but thought I would share what they look like....and yes, I still use them but I think when I emboss I will use a new plate for that side so I don't get all of the wrinkles in my cardstock. 

This is one side.....hahaha!!


 The flip side....
(and the black? yeah, it is ground in cardstock!)


And the reason for the 5 hour energy sitting on the corner? So you can see how wrapped they are!!
hahahahahaha.....But I still use them!
What do you think? time to replace them yet? 
I think they are still good for awhile (and yes, I have new ones I just think I can still use these...)


Happy Scrappin'
