Sizzix Bigz dies in Cuttlebug?

[NancyJ]

Do the Bigz dies fit through the Cuttlebug? I don't have any of the Bigz yet, but there are some nice ones and I would like to know if they fit before I buy one. Thanks.

Yes Nancy, they do fit. I may suggest getting the starting kit then you'll have the 'rubber' and spacer to go with them. They make a beautiful embossing. I've tried the Fiskar with the 'rubber' and it does awesome with embossing as well. Have fun and Happy Stamping! Nena

I believe the Bigz dies fit only in the Big Kick and the Big Shot. I think the previous poster is referring to the embossing folders, which are different.

I own a cuttlebug and one Bigz die, #654981 Daisies, and it fits just fine.
The Bigz die measures approx. 5 1/2" x 6".
My Cuttlebug platforms measure approx. 6" x 7 3/4"
If all Bigz dies are the same measurement, then they should all fit just fine in the Cuttlebug.
Hope that helps.

See my post questions earlier this week regarding the long 13 inch Onsie die. It does fit through the CB just fine, but there is no CB cutting pad that is that long. The Sizzix long pad is too wide for the CB. So far I have placed 2 B's below and 2 above, but get a crease in the middle of the die cut. After work today i am going to try putting spaced CS between the die and the B plate to see if I get less creasing.

Also, the onsie die is just a little bit too big for an A-6 envelope, so that is a little problomatic as well. Still, it cuts out very well and is oh so cute!
