Cuttlebug Embosser and Die Cutter Overview
Expressing creativity has never been easier. Cut shapes, emboss shapes or cut then emboss shapes. The machine and inspired die designs exclusive to the Cuttlebug system are as fun as they are simple to use. Just lower the platforms; a powerful gripping mechanism holds the machine in place. Then place cutting material and die (face up) between cutting mats and turn the handle to move the die through the machine. Remove the die cut shape and start crafting. Cuttlebug is user friendly with any die and cuts a variety of materials. Its fold-n-store profile allows storage in a small amount of space and the built-in pop-up handle allows for quick transport.

I am just starting as a scrapper and I've had my eyes on a cutting machine for a while, but the price stopped me, in august I saw the cuttlebug with bonus kit at .00 and I had to buy it, specially after seeing all the tutorials in you tube and how you can even use other brands of dies with it.
I absolutely love it, here is why:
1. My scrapbook pages took a 180° turn with this machine, I'm no expert but you can tell the difference with the before and after pages.
2. The dies are really affordable, and I got some on e-bay for 1-5 dollars, a whole alphabet set for .25!
3. The embossing is so pretty, you don't even need to add much to a card afterwards.
4. I haven't tried it yet (my budget for crafting supplies ran out for this month) but I've seen tutorials on how to use other brands of dies and embossing folders, and that expand the possibilities so much!!
5. It is small, not so heavy, and easy to operate, I am 7 months pregnant and I can use it sitting down most of the time.
I have read many complaints about the boards and the suction cup. I have used it on wood and it sticks fine. About the boards, the dies do cut and mark them, but that is normal, I used to work in a cutting factory and we had a similar device to cut fabric (bra parts) it used pressure and dies and we had to rotate the boards and file them after a while so they wouldn't crack, and of course we had to replace them after some use. My advice is, if you are going to use the same die for a lot of cutting, turn the board, take turns with both B plates, place the die in different positions, so you don't cut in the same place with the same shape over and over which will shorten the board life. I have cut a lot of shapes in three weeks and the board is fine, doesn't look pretty, but it cuts just fine, I guess I will have to replace it some day, but we will see how long can I keep it :)
Well I love scrpabooking with the Bug, check my pictures and my review of the bonus kit!!
