Cuttlebug Sandwich Stack Rules
Important Sandwiching Notes:
Cuttlebugs differ from machine to machine, and the space between the rollers can vary, so be SURE to ALWAYS err on the THIN side; you can pass the sandwich through the machine again, but if you start out too thick, you can potentially break a plate or otherwise hurt your new ‘bug!
If a cardstock or chipboard shim is noted, always try the sandwich without first, then add cut-to-size (the size of the plates) cardstock or chipboard layers until the appropriate thickness of the sandwich is determined.
