[Tamidolphin]

Has anyone heard of using self healing cutting mats in there cuttlebug instead of the B plate to keep the nesties from sticking to the B plate? Someone mentioned they did this would like to hear other tboughts and where do you buy such a thing?

I use an Olfa self healing cutting mat in my Cuttlebug but not in place of a B plate. The sandwich I use when cutting: A plate, B plate, Olfa mat, paper, nesties, B plate. When embossing I use: A plate, B plate, tan embossing mat, paper, nesties, B plate, 3 pieces of Stampin Up paper. This works really well for me. You can get the small 4 inch x 6 inch Olfa mats at Joanns or Hobby Lobby, or probaby any sewing store.

Good idea! I think the dies would last longer this way.
