FYI
When using Bigz or Originals dies that have score marks, perforations, or lots of details, we recommend that you cut just one piece of paper at a time. Use the Premium Crease Pad with dies that have score marks for best results.
Steel-ruled dies have sharp edges—handle with care.
When cutting intricately-detailed images, paper (or other material) may become caught in the die. Remove carefully to prevent ripping.
Not all materials will work well with some designs. Experiment a bit with your dies and materials to make sure you get the cutting results you want.
