d. Choice of cardstock
e. Cuttlebug “B” plate

2. First you need to become familiar with the Cuttlebug Folders if you have not used them before. These come in various sets - either large background folders or small folders for individual images. Each folder is in 2 halves - a positive and a negative half. Each half gets embossed onto the paper from both sides to guarantee a clear and deep embossed image.

7. Insert now this “sandwich into the front of the machine. Secure the machine to the table by pulling the small left lever until the machine adheres itself to the underground. This underground should be smooth and flat.Now pull the lever on the right side towards you so that it starts to pull the “sandwich” through the machine. Continue turning the lever until the “sandwich” is completely through. You will need to hold the top of the machine with your second hand if necessary to help.
