1. This is how the Cuttlebug looks. This is the closed position and is small and compact for easy storage.
|
|
|
2. Opened, the Cuttlebug has a tray for processing the embossing folders or die cuts. When opening both trays, the Cuttlebug adheres to the table to make it stable when using.
|
|
|
3. The Cuttlebug comes with 3 processing plates. Depending on what you are embossing or cutting, you will need 2 or more of these plates. The “A” plate is the thickest and the “B” plate the thinnest of the three.
|
|
|
4. These are two examples of the very large selection of Cuttlebug embossing folders. The larger folder is great for making background embossing and the smaller version is perfect for gift tags and also for embossing small messages.
|
|
|
5. Each folder opens and you will place the paper inside. Inside you will notice a positive and negative print. This will guarantee a quality embossed image once you have processed the folder through the machine.
|
|
|
6. To process, you will need to place your plates and materials in the following order:
1. The “A” plate
2. The “B” plate
3. The embossing folder with the
paper placed inside it.
4. A second “B” plate
|
|
|
7. Turn the knob on the right side and process the “sandwich” through. Once finished, the paper is perfectly embossed.

8. These are Cuttlebug dies. The top side is metal and underneath is foam. You can buy them like here in a pack of 4 or larger ones sold individually.
|
|
|
9. To process using a die, you will need to place your plates and materials in the following order:
1. The “A” plate
2. The “B” plate
3. The Cuttlebug die with the foam
side facing up
4. The paper or cardstock
5. A second “B” plate
|
|
|
10. Place the “sandwich” on the tray and process through the machine by turning the knob on the right.
|
|
|
11. Once through, the image is cut.
|
|
|
12. You can go one step further and emboss the cut image by placing it in the folder and following steps 5-7.
|
|
|
13. This is how the embossed cut image now looks like.
