« on: February 16, 2014, 02:54:08 pm »
Do any of  you use  the Cuddlebug or Sizzix or anther kind of embossing tool?

Do you like it?  Why?  our group is trying to decide if we want one and what we would use it for.  Also which one is the best.

One thing I like about the Big Shot is that you can use any brand of embossing folders and cutting dies with it.
Happy Scrappn!!

YEP!! exactly!! I work at M's. I sell both and have used both. Sizzix is my favorite. it is much more versatile and the Tim holtz stuff that I love is designed for the sizzix.  The big shot, or big kick, uses all brands of dies or embossing folders. and it is capable of using my different types of materials, thick stuff and fine stuff, cloth, felt, thin metals, multiple layers. So I own the Big Shot. and I believe there is a coupon online right now for M's that is 25 or 30 percent off this week on Die cutting machines and accessories. I set aside some stuff to purchase myself today. (the lines were too long when I was leaving. so I will pay for my stuff on Tuesday)

I have a Big Shot too, and love it! I use it for letters and die cuts.  Even though I have a few embossing folders I don't use them that much.
