Hello everyone, I was wondering if someone could help me!

I have just bough some sizzix sizzlets alphabet dies (cat and mouse to be precise) and I have tried running them through my bug with the usual sandwich like you would with a bug die. Am I doing something wrong as the cut was not very clean…would this becuase my paper was too thin?

Any help and advice would be much appreciated

Hi Aims, are you using a A, B&C plate??
if it is still too thin a bit card one at a time till you get the proper cut,
hope this helps x maggie

I was using the A, B, B plate combination as the C plate is too thick to go through the bug. Did I get that the right way round? The green plate is the A plate isnt it?

I will try adding more pieces of card in to pad it out a little

A plate is the really thick one that goes on bottom aims.
