big shot die question
will the big shot dies work with th cuttlebug? i already have a cuttlebug machine and i really dont want to spend the extra money if i don't have to. If so, can you give me a sandwich? thanks

I'm subscribing...I'd like to know also. I have a cuttlebug and cricut...just haven't taken the Big shot or Wizard (debating on both) plunge yet. ;)

I would like to know this also since I have a cuttlebug. I love the big shot dies in the SU catalog. Thanks.....

anyone?? My SU rep is waiting for a response from me and like posters above I have the CB and don't want to buy another "toy" if I don't have to.. not to mention DH's reaction if he sees it :( I really want the Basket and Blooms and Top Note dies!

OK so I was doing some major surfing and this thread came up from SCS.
http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...php?p=11262387 Go down to post #28 and click on Amy's tutorial. You can use the big dies with the CB!! WOO HOO!! |
The thin, Sizzlet, dies will work in the CB but not the bigger thick ones (originals or BigZ). I have the Big Shot, not the CB but I think it's because they won't fit through the machine for some reason. I don't know if it's the width of the die or the thickness of it.
*edited to say that I should've read the above post before responding. I didn't think it would work (I swear I heard that from many people when the CB first came out). I love the new XL sized dies but $40 is a bit too much to pay IMHO. I might stalk the Sizzix site for some bargains before I take the plunge at full retail. |
Thanks anmito! Here's the direct link to the info on my blog... http://amysinkyfingers.blogspot.com/...cuttlebug.html

I know the red original dies work in the CB, I use them in mine all the time.

been using with no problem in my bug too :)
love the 3D ornament and leaves |
Bigz XL fits in Cuttlebug! Yeah!
Hey ladies - you can fit the new SU Bigz XL dies (baskets and blossoms) in your cuttlebug - the die fits perfectly - the only thing you'll have to do is to have your husband or someone with a saw cut off 1/4" of the long side of each extended cutting pads. The cutting pads are just too wide by 1/4 to fit through the 6" wide cuttlebug. Othere than that everything works just great. I am loving the cute little baskets. Made a ton for halloween - very cute!
