I’ve just got two cuttlebug embossing folders to use with my big shot!!! all I can say is
WOW!!!!!!The embossing it amazing!! now I know how you could make them look so nice chalking them as they are soo deep!!
What I want to know is what are the dots and scroll ones called?
And can anyone reccommend a good place online to get them, as just cost me and the kids £5.70 on the bus for one stop & 3/4 of a mile walk there and back to the bus stop, to get to craft central, its 3 miles in the car, when I had one!! I bought
Stylized flowers,gorgeous!!!
and script imazingly deep impression.
What have you got?
, whats your favourite?

hi Nicola, i brought the Stylized flowers in October last year, haven’t been able to give it a go yet ness still has my bug 7 months now - oh well)

The one i really do like is the birthday one, as you can cut out the sections and use them the card for the message - which looks really good.

I have just bought some goodies on ebay for my cuttlebug very cheaply. Much cheaper than paying for petrol and the RRP! Some of them were 1/3 of the RRP!

Have you had a look at www.oysterstamps.co.uk?
They seem to have a huge selection of Cuttlebug embossing folders and Maggie got her Cuttle there, and they were quick on delivery too! Gremlins must be out tonight! Sorry to tempt you when you’ve already ordered with Handy Hippo. Are they good on delivery times too?

Thankyou, not ordered from Handy Hippo before,hope it wont be too long and the postage was £2.95 however small the order, which I think is steep fot a flat packet of embossing folder, so had to order more to account for the postage LOL Will just and have a peek at Oyster, as addicted to embossing folders now!!xxx

I’m sure you will enjoy all your Cuttle folders when they arrive. I hope it’s not too long to wait Nicola.
Have you tried the Cuttlekids alphabets. I’ve got one (4 letteres to the 2” x 2” die) and they are a lovely size for cards and much cheaper than the full Cuttle alphabet sets!

I have a few folders inc swirls and flowers. Bought Christmas ones after seeing cards made with them in mag last year, they were great, one was full of ~Christmas words and was great for cutting out as was the snowman who looked great chalked with rosy cheeks! Love them all.  smile I buy mine from MSA Crafts, Cradley Heath, West Midlands.

I had a parcel of bug goodies come today. I got some heart, stars and critter dies and stylized flowers and tapestry folders. I was busy playing with them earlier. I just haven’t had a chance to take pics yet.

They are sooo cool. I love the tapestry folder. It looks great inked using a brayer.
