Recommended Materials for Use
With The Sizzix Big Shot From Stampin' Up!
(For the Bigz and Stampin' Up! Original Dies only)

Stampin' Up! Big Shot


The following materials work well when creating die cuts with the Sizzix Bigz and Originals dies for the Big Shot machine offered through Stampin' Up!. Please note the maximum thickness of several materials. As a rule of thumb, you can cut a material with your Big Shot machine and Bigz or Originals dies if you can cut it using your Craft & Paper Scissors. Please note this is for the Bigz and Originals (made especially for Stampin' Up!) only-- not the Sizzlits, etc.
