Tip Tuesday at Creative Cutter Room

Today is my opportunity to share a Quick Tip over at Creative Cutter Room
How to use your new All-In-One Embossing System by Cuttlebug
with your Cuttlebug and/or with your Sizzix Big Shot


This is the Cuttlebug All-In-One Embossing
System.
You must purchase this separately from
the embossing plates.

Here is one of the embossing plates.
This is the Cupcake Celebration. 

You open the case to find the positive
and negative plates inside organized in
plastic masks?

I lifted the cupcake one and you can
see the other parts in this separate
mask/container.

If you are not careful lifting your mask/
container, this is what happens.  Some
of you might be OK with this, but some
of you might want to keep them all
organized.

I chose this corner design for demo
purposes. Here you can see the positive
plate (green) and the negative plate
(clear).
Here I aligned and placed the positive
on the bottom to emboss and the clear
on top. Make sure they align on the pegs. 
Here I placed my cardstock before
running through the embossing
machine. 
If you are going to use a Cuttlebug,
you need to place two B plates on top
of the All-In-One and insert in your
machine arrow first. 
If you are going to use a Sizzix
Big Shot, you place your two clear
plates on top before running it
through. 
I additionally tested with one clear plate
on top and another one on the bottom
instead of both on top, and it worked
just fine. 
Here you can see that I embossed
(green on bottom, clear on top) and
I debossed (clear on bottom, green
on top). 
I am loving this system, I hope you enjoy yours!
