Thank you VERY much for the link. I just cut and pasted it into a Word document that I can print. I'm always wondering if I can use other stuff in my Big Shot!

Thanks for the link! I held off buying the new disney cuttlebug dies because I didn't know if they would work in my sidekick. Now I'm ready to shop! LOL

I was looking at them yesterday in AC Moore. I don't think that they will work in a sidekick. Not unless you make your own cutting pad somehow. The standard sidekick plates are too narrow for the disney dies.

the disney dies are too wide for the sidekick, but should work with the sizzix. maggie

Just wanted to say thank you for posting this!!!

So I could use the disney dies in my regular sizzix with the converter? I don't want to invest in another machine. Thanks!

Love the List, have a question. When using CB dies in Big Kick or any other non- sizzix die cut, are you facing the dies down or upward? I'm never sure which is the best way. I don't want to crack anything!
Thanks,
Kathy

Another thanks here! I really did not want to buy yet another machine, but I have been longing for some of the CB embossing folders.

Tinkercat...I know on Creative Express site they tell you to use their dies facing up or they will crack. I've not had a problem using my Bigshot with Sizzix dies at all. Facing up or down. It is just with the cuttlebug you MUST face them up...I had one bend when my DH decided he just had to try it.
