Cuttlebug die cutter for scrapbooking?
I am thinking about purchasing a die cutter, can anyone give me feedback on the Cuttlebug? Do you like it? Is it easy to use?
Thanks!
I initially purchased the cuttlebug, didn’t open the package and returned everything in exchange for the small Cricut cutter. The Cuttlebug (although way less expensive than the Cricut) had limitations. You can only use the dies specifically designed for use for their product. Purchasing many of the dies over time becomes a costly endeavor, which was why I ended up returning it & buying the small Cricut (Both are made by the same mfg. www.provocraft.com).
The Cuttlebug (used my friends) was very easy to use, but it will only cut with the specific die that you use.
The Cricut on the other hand, had a broader assortment of shapes and letters that I can cut and use (only up to 4 cartridges is needed for a great assortment of shapes and letters). It’s a very good tool if you’re really into scrapbooking. If not, the Cuttlebug is just as good. Just know that it has it’s limitations, however, it’s not as expensive as the Cricut.
Here’s a couple websites to consider. They have good prices too:

Hope this gives you a little insight. Best wishes on your choices & Happy New Year!
