I just copy & pasted the response I gave to this very question a while back:
I use the plates in my cuttlebug. I found the trick was a silicone pad. This is the sandwich I use: A plate, texture plate, cardstock you want to emboss, silicone pad, cardstock shim (if needed), C plate. I bought a silicone baking sheet from Canadian Tire for $5 and I got 2 pads the size of the cuttlebug plates and 3 smaller pad the size of most of my spellbinder dies. You may want to lightly spritz you cardstock with water or rubbing alcohol just before you send it through the cuttlebug for a deeper impression. Hope that helps you out.
