I've used the cuttlebug ef's in the zipemate as well as my qk dies in it. <BR/>I've got a friend who swears by her Wizard.<BR/>june's QK Revolution is really nice - i just didnt want to spend the money as i had the other 2 :-)<BR/>i think you can find deals on both the QK handle and the Zipemate for sure. The dies are another matter and price - well its really you knowing your personal pocketbook kwim? i'd look at websites that sell them and then check ebay to see where the pricing falls and if you think they fit into your price range. (i bought most of my alpha sets with an employee discount so ......)<BR/>i found a great thread on 2peas that discusses what all the machines etc do... its really worthwhile i think so you can pick the one that does what you want ok? check it out sweetie!<BR/>http://twopeasinabucket.kaboose.com/mb.asp?cmd=display&thread_id=2142669Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13132528359150351790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236003707769495273.post-66622654188069362422007-07-31T11:43:00.000-04:002007-07-31T11:43:00.000-04:00okay, this blog listed info about various machines...okay, this blog listed info about various machines, so I hope it does not confuse the issue further...<BR/><BR/>http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2007/07/5-1.html<BR/><BR/>You know I have QuicKutz handle and the revolution, so I'm partial to that. I used Tracy's Cuttlebug embossing plates with my revolution (though I had to add a thin piece of chipboard to get it to work.) My best friend, Kaye, loves the Big Shot (she also has the Sizzix machine AND QuicKutz handle). She uses the Cuttlebug in her Big Shot as well as Sizzix dies. So I think you may want to consider that machine. All that rambling...I guess my advice is to get the most versatile machine. The Cricut is REALLY popular right now, but I have not used it enough to know how well it does with heavier cs (like Bazzill). I am very particular about the workmanship on my layouts and cards. I don't like jagged edges, like Fiskars cutters leave. I know the Cricut cuts great with thin decorative papers and cheaper for the cartridges than QK fonts! My only question is how well it would do with Bazzill, or even chipboard, and does it dry emboss? Maybe we should buy them all. LOL! I already have more paper than any sane person actually needs; it is a good thing I can't afford to buy every machine too!June Houckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01592512706384725633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236003707769495273.post-60365118550123083502007-07-31T10:26:00.000-04:002007-07-31T10:26:00.000-04:00I have a Cricut which I LOVE!!!!! It's VERY worth ...I have a Cricut which I LOVE!!!!! It's VERY worth the money and if you are an alphabet freak, they have quite a variety! What I also love are the extras on the cartridges, little sentiments for cards or tags. <BR/>They are coming out with a 12 x 12 cricut or something.... check out their site and see what's new. <BR/>I LOVE MINE and recently have found that WALMART sells CRICUT and it's cartridges and accessories..... good price too!<BR/>Good luck with your hunt!<BR/>~GabiScrapdragonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03967431722222795888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236003707769495273.post-84096270573949618032007-07-31T10:07:00.000-04:002007-07-31T10:07:00.000-04:00I have quick kuts & the wishblade.
