I can't Cuttlebug emboss anything before cutting with my cricut for two reasons:
1: The surface of the paper touching the sticky mat is no longer enough to hold the paper secure when you cut.
2: The raised portion of the paper shreds (if the rest sticks) because it does not have a solid surface behind it.
You can lightly heat emboss before cutting, however I don't do that because usually I want to line up my embossing on the cut image afterwards anyhow...and I am afraid it would wear down the blade faster.
