Could you pls tell me how the Wizard and the Cuttlebug compare if you should choose between these two to buy just one? i'm new to die cutting.
It must work with the Bug, because I was on this site https://www.spellbinders.us/ct/store...wich%20Recipes and they had a sandwich thread with the bug folders listed. So....
These folders and die cuts look really cool, like the hardware one and the paisley and the....LOL Oh No, it looks like i have been enabled again---somebody please stop me now!!!!
Yes, the Spellbinder Wizard dies do work in the Cuttlebug. To emboss you are going to want to purchase one of the tan pads as well. First roll it through the machine with cutting plates and cut it, then you roll it back through with the tan pad and it embosses. They REALLY are cool. I've been having so much fun with them and the detail is AMAZING.
I bought some Spellbinder dies on Saturday and they are cool! The only problem is I couldn't buy a tan pad--only the black Sizzix pad. Does anyone know if they will work for embossing? I'm such a new Cuttlebug owner, I'm afraid to try it and have the plates break before it's a month old!
Linda, I have every assortment of pad and texture plate on the face of the earth - LOL - except the black Sizzix one. I really am not certain it will work, but I do know that I have put all sorts of things through my Cuttlebug and the part I keep breaking is the B plate. If you feel that it is really tight as you are running it through then I would back off and not send it through. It is when it has been tight and I've forced it through that I've popped my B plates. I have found that I don't get as "deep" of an impression when I've used other materials vs. the tan pad. There is something about the composition of that tan pad that makes it so much better then all the other things I have tried. The other thing you might try to improve your image is to lightly mist your paper with a mixture of water and a drop of detergent. This helps break down the paper fibers and gives you a more crisp image. HTH's
