CuttleBug or BigShot???

Just my random blabbing on why I re-purchased the CuttleBug after getting the Big Shot and selling my CuttleBug! I got a lot of questions about that when I showed my new CuttleBug in my last video so I thought I'd do this video rather than reply to every comment and e-mail I received! :o) my blog: http://prairiepaperandink.typepad.com... **EDITED TO ADD (Feb 2014) - I use only my Big Shot now. Why? It's easier to have just one machine rather than using two. Less storage space is needed, less cutting plates, it's just simplified. Another reason is b/c back then I was using mostly Spellbinders Nestabilities dies and it was a pain to get them to NOT emboss with the Big Shot (I say that in the video) - now I rarely use those dies so it's not an issue. Why did I choose the Big Shot over the CuttleBug? Now I use die cuts on most if not every card I make - so I leave my Big Shot out ALL the time (I used to pull them out when I needed them) and I don't have to waste those few extra seconds (i.e. I'm lazy LOL) folding down the CB (it can be left folded out but after a while it loses it's grip and you need to close and open it again - not a big deal but like I said I'm lazy!). Honestly it was just coincidence I think that it ended up being the BS over the CB - I just started using the BS more and the CB got neglected. I still stand by what I said in this video as they're both great machines and it's up to personal preference and what you can find available to you - the CB is generally easier to get (I think WalMart still sells it even) and it's a great little machine! Also it just made sense to me to keep the BS as it's a more expensive machine, is just that little bit bigger and now I've got the magnetic platform for it (which I'm told doesn't fit through the CB). I hope this clears up any confusion from my replies in the comments. This video is now over 4 years old but I didn't want to delete it as it's been helpful to a lot of people! :) Amy
