You can create cards, announcements, gift tags, treat boxes, goodie bags, gift card holders, invitations, scrapbook pages, banners, home decor, fashion accessories, magnets, ornaments, and many more fantastic projects with your die cuts!
Let's talk about tools of the trade! We've bundled your new best friends right into this set to make die-cutting as easy as possible! We've got a handy brush for cleanly removing your intricate die-cuts from the excess paper ensuring a crisp, clean cut every time. Also included is a magnetic pick-up tool that attaches to the bottom of your brush to find scattered dies on your workspace (so you don't accidentally toss out a tiny die with your scraps of cut up paper!). And there's a versatile die pick for extracting those tiny pieces that might be stuck within your cut-outs so you don't do any damage as you complete your artistic die-cut visions!
The Sizzix Sandwich Booklet is 16 pages of helpful, guided instructions so you never feel like you're in the dark on how to use your die-cutting machine and find yourself wondering what goes where. It has easy-to-follow steps on how to properly prepare and load your dies, embossing folders, ShadowPress, Framelits, Thinlits, Movers and Shapers, and Triplits. No need to commit the order to memory with this handy-dandy (adorably-shaped!) sandwich guide!
NOTE: Just in case you aren't totally sold on this amazing machine and bundle of goodies, you can compare the Sizzix Big Shot with other top-selling die cutting machines using our handy Die Cut Machine Comparison Chart.
Instructions: To operate the Sizzix Big Shot machine with thin metal dies, use the included Sizzix Multi-Purpose Platform or an accessory platform such as the Sizzix Magnetic Platform (sold separately), as well as the included set of sparkly cutting pads. To create your die cutting “sandwich”, begin by placing the platform on the bottom. On top of the platform, place one Ocean Sparkle cutting pad. Then place your material right side up on top of the cutting pad. Place the thin metal die on top of the paper, with the cutting edge down (in contact with the material). Finish the die cut “sandwich” by placing the second cutting pad on top. Set the die and pad “sandwich” on the cutting path of the Big Shot machine, and turn the crank to move it through the machine. You may need a little bit more elbow power once the "meat" of your die-cut "sandwich" is rolling through the machine, but only a little more pressure will get you all the way through.
To use the Sizzix Big Shot with a steel rule die, place the die between the Ocean Sparkle cutting pads with the material face down over the part of the die design you would like to cut. If needed, use Washi or masking tape to secure the paper in place to get perfect placement of your material. Set the die and pad “sandwich” on the cutting path of the Big Shot machine, and turn the crank to move it through the machine.
For easy reference of how to assemble “sandwiches” with the included Ocean Sparkle cutting pads for other types of dies and Sizzix accessories, use the Sizzix Sandwich Booklet that is included in this bundle!
The possibilities are literally endless when you use your Sizzix Big Shot machine with thousands of thin metal dies, steel rule dies, and embossing folders that will bring projects you've only imagined in your dreams to life!
Here are just a few reviews of the products included in this exclusive bundle from our Scrapbook.com customers:
"The Scrapbook.com exclusive cutting pads are actually a life saver! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH STUFF I HAVE ON MY SCRAPBOOK TABLE? If these bad boys were clear I would spend 1/3 of my time just trying to locate the pads! This is brilliant to put them in a bright glitter color so they stand out against any background. As for the machine, it's a no-brainer. GET IT. It feels extremely sturdy and is foolproof to use. I hadn't even heard about die cutting until a few weeks ago let alone know how to operate a machine. It's easy to use but looks like a professional did it! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good, manual die cutting machine." - giococello
"Love this little guy! It's just right for a beginner and it's size makes it easy to store (I have very limited space for crafting and so that's important). Before the Big Shot I was hand cutting everything and no matter how careful I was things didn't match up. The dies are wonderful. Most important of all is all your classes for beginners." - terrythompson436
"The first chance I had, I tried out the brush roller on a challenging embossed piece and all the little pieces came right off with a simple roll of the brush! Thank you for this time-saving tool!" - Lindabarnett1
"This sandwich booklet is the perfect book for me. Every time I go to use my dies I have to stop and think if I am doing it right. Do I need this or do I need that or no I don't need it. LOL, now I can have a cheat sheet and not question myself anymore. Thank you so much for the lifesaver booklet." - lyndavz
"Finally a SAFE pick tool! Stylish, well made, sharp paper piercer with a cover that works. Stays on tightly when you are not using the tool, can be placed on other end without falling off when you are. No more injuries reaching into your craft bag. Definitely recommend! Also a great gift!" - misker
Safety Reminders:
TIP: The Ocean Sparkle plastic cutting pads often make loud creaking, cracking, and snapping noises while being cranked through the machine. This is no cause for alarm! This is a normal part of machine operation and the cutting pads and machine are designed to withstand the pressures of cutting. The pads may even show outlines of your dies after use - do not panic! This is totally normal as well! To extend the life of your cutting pads, flip them over periodically.

I've been using another company's die cutting machine since I started card making 3-4 years ago. I've been ok with its performance, but could tell it was lacking, just from all the tutorial videos I watched with people using the Big Shot. I've only had this a week but can already tell it's miles above my old machine in quality, performance, and ease of use. I wish I'd have gotten this brand when I first started paper crafting! I highly recommend!!

I bought the Big Shot a short time ago. Now I'm a crafter who has had a Cuddlebug and an Excalibur and I'm here to tell you that the Big Shot is the easiest machine to use...in my opinion. I love it! Scrapbook.com also had the best price and sale at the time I purchased this machine. I would recommend you check here before checking anyplace else before to buy. There is a reason more crafters use the Big Shot and I now know why!! Do you want to know why?

As fun as all of the Big Shot Bundles, this one seems to be directed toward veteran crafters. Unlike other (more expensive) bundles, this bundle features items the experienced crafters will find very useful. Love it. The new grey and white Big Shot is easier to use and well-crafted. Confession: I really like the sparkly cutting pads.
I'm glad I got this one. Really pleased with the tools that came with it, and love having the magnetic storage envelopes. The paper pack is good, too, and goes with some of my projects I've been working on. I am glad I got the Big Shot, it seems a well-built machine and I haven't had any problems using it.
Used in this project: 2023 Card #5 - Birthday Leaf Spray Slimline Cards (Case)
It is wonderful that all the items you need to get started with is bundled into this set.

This is sooooooooooooo nice. Can use bigger dies and it sure beats the slot machine type handle.

I've been wanting a Sizzix Big Shot for a long time, and I finally bought one. I'm estatic, oh all the projects I'm dreaming of. Now, to decide on which dies to buy and use.

This item was sent without being in a box. Items were all over the place and it looks as if it may have been used. It is hard for me to share this as a Christmas gift because there is not product box to wrap.

Hi! I am thinking of purchasing the Big Shot Plus, but I to am confused by a statement I have heard. Can you use the Bigz dies
From what I've read about it, the only dies that can NOT be used by the B.S. Plus is the Bigz PRO dies (Big Shot PRO)..the only difference between the Big Shot & the Big Shot Plus, is the size of workspace- You can use ALL of the Sizzix dies, embossing folders, etc.- EXCEPT FOR BIGZ PRO DIES!

If you already own a BigShot - you can use any of those plates on the BigShot Plus You can use the same dies, the Movers and Shapers, etc. As far as I know right now, any of the products that Sizzix makes can be use with the BigShot Plus. At this time I feel the plus gives you more surface area for cutting and you can use wider sheets of paper. I'm not sure what you mean by a specific list of cans and cannot for the plus. Here is my answer for that: you can use all the dies with the plus that you would use for the regular BigShot. I haven't come across any 'can nots' yet!

I'm confused. It states machine only, however, the platforms are included in the description. Does it or does it not come with the platforms? If not, what are you supposed to use for cutting?

Hi, Me again. I just recieved my BigShot Plus and the plates are included and they measure 9" x 15"!!
Hi! I think this is stated as machine only because Sizzix runs a lot of promotions that include dies and or embossing folders. This purchase is for the machine and the platforms listed in the description.

When are the platform and all other accessories going to be available for the plus? Will there be a package that includes the big shot plus machine and the necessary accessories needed to use it?

If u have a cricut maker- is it worth getting this?

I have a Cricut and a Big shot and I find both are invaluable for different reasons. I started with a just a Cricut a couple years ago. Shortly after getting my Cricut, I discovered embossing folders, which you can't do on a Cricut. That led me to getting a Cuttlebug on clearance from Cricut, but didn't realize at the time that it was discontinued (hence the clearance sale, lol). I used it for a while, but got more interested in intricate dies, cover plates, and coordinating dies with stamp sets that the Cuttlebug didn't do very well at cutting without having to add a bunch of shims, etc. It works great for embossing, but lacks in die cutting, especially when not using Cuttlebug specific dies. That led me to upgrade to the Big Shot, which I got on sale with a coupon, etc., so it was a win-win. I found that some intricate dies are just better with a machine like the Big Shot. And sometimes you just want to cut something quickly and don't have the time to fuss with Design Space.
It really depends on the type of projects you are wanting to make. This machine will cut out shapes using dies but also can add texture using embossing plates.
