Makeshift letterpress with a cuttlebug - Part One

Step 6Print!

Print!
Place the base (it should have your B plate with your paper cushion attached to it) into the opening of the cuttlebug.

Put the paper you are going to print on on top of the paper cushion.

Place your inked design face down on the paper.

Run the stack through the cuttlebug. It should roll easily. If it doesn't you might have too much paper stacked underneath.

ALTERNATE OPTIONS FOR MORE PRECISION:

1. Place plastic photo hinges on the bottom B plate to hold your paper and ensure you are placing it in the same place each time.

2. Make a make shift hinge out of tape so that your top plate will close on top of your bottom plate like a book. This will ensure that the top plate is placed in the same spot with each print.
