Did you know that the Big Shot can cut through over 50 different types of materials?

The Top 10 Unusual Materials that can be used in the Big Shot:

1. Fine Sandpaper
2. Balsa Wood (3/32")
3. Pop-up Sponge
4. Aluminum (.016")
5. Clear Acetate (20 mil)
6. Iron-on Fabric
7. Thin Leather
8. Shelf Liner
9. Fun Foam
10. 100% pure beeswax (cut with parchment paper on top & bottom of beeswax) 

Here are 3 samples using these unusual materials:

I was inspired by the video of Shelli Gardner decorating her place settings for the holidays.  I decided to make small gifts for all of the kids who will visit us over the holidays.  The pillow box is made using the Pillow Box die and acetate in the Big Shot.  The stamp "ENJOY" and the polka dot cardstock are both from the Country Living Holiday Collection kit.

Enjoy!

I used the Big Shot and the Serif Essentials Alphabet Dies to make the "J" and "Y" using white felt.  The Bigz dies cut felt just as easily as paper.  You can also use the Bigz dies to cut material, cork, vinyl, etc.  The snowflake is from the Felt Flurries in the Holiday mini-catalog.

Stamps:  Snow Swirled

Ink:  Night of Navy

Paper:  Going Gray and Night of Navy

Bling:  Felt Flurries, Rhinestone Brad, Going Gray and White taffeta ribbon

This "Peace" card was made using the Big Shot Die-Cut Machine.  The Big Shot is so easy to use that my kids prefer it over the Cuttlebug.  I used the new Pacific Point cardstock and a white gel pen to finish off the card.
