I love the swiss dot one it’s gorgeous, got a x-cut die today going to try it out on the bug as it’s much thinner, need to add letter D I think instead of a B plate . xx Maggie
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.
You’ve caught the bug!!
OOhh indeed! In a BIG (or should that be BUG) way!
What are the best alphabets,dies and embossing folders that you would recommend buying for my cuttlebug? Thanks
In Oz you can get alphabet sets cheaply as well but need to gain enough money to buy a set......LOL
hehehe Lollies I have to say ALL OF THEM! LOL I LOVE them all. I made a few naughty ebay buys, but they were worth it! I have some sizzix dies coming from America, that have not been released here yet! I paid less than $10 each! RRP here for me for similar ones are over $30.
Actually Lollies, just have a look at cards made by some of the clever ladies around here and you will get a feel for what you like. Then go with that.
With my purchases I have tried to buy dies and folders that I can use for more than one occasion, and ones that can be used for all ages. The animal ones are cute but really only suitable for young children. You wont be making the best use of your money if you don’t use it very often.
Its a matter of preference lollies I was torn between the curly ones and red tag but decided on red tag as I thought they would me more practical, there are lots to choose from, if you google it you will see them all good luck hun xx Maggie
Lol, didn’t realise this thread was here, I put the link for cutting edge crafts on another post a few days ago, have notice they’ve got some other dies on there now.
I’m still not impressed with Handy Hippo, I still havent received all my order!!
I have since ordered some from Sassy Crafts and they came this morning, I got the 4 small ones called wedding/marriage and the larger Happy birthday one. Really annoyed with handy hipo, I could have ordred and received them from somewhere else now, but they have my money so cant order them again!!

Just ordered Alphabet set off ebay on buy now for £22 uk, red tag sale ones, great price, xx Maggie
That is a good price, I haven’t seen any that cheaply on Ebay in the UK!
I went to Hobbycraft today, for the first time in ages, wished I hadn’t! They have started selling Cutlebug at last, but their prices are sky-high £64.99 for an alphabet and around £6.50 for the double dies
I know what you mean hunny, I saw that and nearly passed out, I will be looking on Ebay for aplhabet dies, Nicola, sorry to hear Handy Hippo havnt been very good, I got my Cuttlebug from them and they seemed quick only a few days, I hope you dont have to wait much londer for them, I have the Birthday folder, Stylised flowers and the Dotty flower one Maggies got, I cant remember the name either LOL… enjoy yours when they come.
