So, I haven't done any craft shopping in about two months because money is tight...but I did manage to find the coolest thing at Hobby Lobby last week.  It is the Cuttlebug Embossing Plus.  It was the first time I have seen this in stores.  I used my 40% off coupon (because it is $25 new) so that saved me a good portion of money and I absolutely LOVE this!!!


Here is how it works:

This is what it looks like in the store.

This is where you open it to put the paper.
This is where you open it to ink it.
Put your paper down.
Run it through your Cuttlebug with two B plates and plate A.  I used some basic cardstock made by Recollections (from Michaels) and it was kind of tough getting it through the Cuttlebug but it did work fine...so thicker cardstock might be tough to get  it through the Cuttlebug.
Then you open the plastic window and ink it.  The green plate is metal...that is what you are inking on.  You have to hold up the clear window (at the top) as you are inking.  Since I had a camera in hand...I had to borrow my teenagers hand to hold it up so I could take photos.  So, thanks Korbin!  =D
Get all your patterns inked up.

Then open up your folder/plate and see your glorious ink!
As you pull it up your cuts start to fall out.
Here is your end result!  AWESOME!!!  I totally love this!!!

The ink wipes off the green metal plates really easy with baby wipes!

They make a few different styles of these.  My Hobby Lobby only had two...this one and one that made tags.  But they do make more.

Some of you probably already know about this (actually I saw it at CHA this past summer...but I totally forgot about it) but I thought I would share anyway for the people who may not know about it yet (or forgot about it like me!)

Oh, and here are two sentiments you can have.  They are sentiments I used with this new Cuttlebug Embosser Plus.  Hope you enjoy them!
