New to cuttlebug...

[123SA]

and trying to take the easy way out. Is there anything I need to know that is not in the instruction book?

Can I use the cuttlekids dies in the cuttlebug?

Is there a type of paper that works better than others, or a paper that doesn't work well at all?

Right now I have 3 embossing folders and the flower set for the cuttlekid. I hope someone (kids, DH) will pick up some more for Mother's Day

i'm pretty sure you can use the cuttlekids in the cuttlebug machine but not the cuttlebug dies in the cuttlekids machine. - hope i got that right!!!

i just love the embossing dies. they seem to work very well for me, no matter what the paper.

do you have a michael's near you? because mine has most of the cuttlekids on clearance. if not, let me know and i'll check mine for you!

enjoy it!

Yes, I was just at Michael's today and I didn't see any on clearance. They were 30% off today. Was there a dinosaur set? I want to find that one.

yes you can use cuttlekids in the cuttlebug machine, you can't use the regular cuttlebug dies in the cuttlekid machine. maggie

I just bought the cuttle bug this week too. I had a 55% off coupon for ACM and gift cards so it cost me $15 out of pocket. I was prettty happy. I kept saying I didn't need one I have both Cricuts but I couldn't pass up a deal.
I was saving my gift cards for Pooh carts but I didn't, I hope I don't regret it.

I'm thinking you can use the regular sizzix dies in the cuttlebug. you can also use sizzlets, quickutz in the cuttlebug. maggie

(the only thing so far that I haven't been able to get to work is the elison dies that the school has, but they are really thick)
