Awhile back we talked about embossing with CB folders with a rolling pin can someone refresh my memory on this. I bought a folder the other day and want to use it. I tried it the way i was thinking and it did not work as well as i wanted it too maybe i didn't put enough pressure on the rolling pin.????

thanks for your help. I am really thinking about investing in the cute little bug with my birthday money, What do you gals think??? I just love those embossing plates :)

I read somewhere that your suppost to finally mist your paper first then do it. I've never done it this way before though.

Christy, I say go for the Bug! Joann and Michael's will be having lots of coupons between now and Christmas. Use a 40 or 50% off coupon and have a ball!

OH I missed part of that, I would most certainly buy the bug. you can use a M's 50% off coupon and get it for 40 bucks!! That's what I did.

I could never get an even patterned with the rolling pin, so I bought the Bug! I don't remember now if I misted the paper or not, maybe I missed the trick. You will love your Cuttlebug, it is super easy to use and very portable!

I haven't tried it yet, but someone told me that you can put your CB folders through a pasta machine and it would work. If anyone gives it a try, let us know.

The cuttlebug folders also work with the Sixxix (sp?) machine as long as you have the converter thingie. You just have to move the folder every little bit to emboss your paper.
