I have a BS Pro, and I agree, finding recipes is not easy. I'll be following this thread to see if you get some links! I tried the BS sticky, but its hard work wading through all the posts, just to find it only mentions the BSPro, it doesn't actually have any recipes.I've got a little notebook in the well of my Pro that I put recipes in, when I find them, or I get one to work for me.
For Cuttlebug folders, mine likes :
Base Tray
Solo Platform ( some also need solo shim)
Adapter Pad
Clear plate
Folder & cardstock
Cuttlebug 'B'plate.( some are ok with a BSP clear plate)
Note: some of the Darice folders are thicker, you will need to slim the sandwich down a bit.
Tims Movers & Shapers. This is without a holder/magnetic sheet as I only just got one of those.

Like I say, this works for mine. I'd recommend taking at least one element out of each sandwich before you try them in yours. Just like the 'bug, every machine is a little different in what it needs- better to start off with a sandwich that goes through & does no embossing, than to break your machine. Thats how I work mine out- first time nothing happens, so I add a thin shim, repeat, and so on until I get a good clear emboss. Then I see if I can replace some of the shims with a plate, and so on. You should not have to force the handle to turn- if it does not start to feed without difficulty, you probably have the sandwich too thick.
