Big Shot Magnetic Sheet

Hi, I have the Big Shot and up until now, have just used masking tape to hold the dies down onto the paper before rolling them through the machine.

I have been told of a magnetic A5 sheet to do this instead. I do have quite a few of the Tattered Lace Magnetic die sheets and was wondering if they were the same thing and would do the same job, or would I have to buy a sheet specifically for my big shot?

Also, are there any pros and cons to the sheets?

Thanks

I misunderstood what the magnetic sheet actually was; it isn't a sheet but a magnetic platform.

Problem solved and Another item I want for my crafting.

It's a fab piece of kit, handy for using the cutting die over a stamped image.

I think I will be adding one of these to my Christmas list :lol:

I have got the platform and find it's brilliant. Dies stay perfectly in place and you can place them exactly where you want. I do find it very slightly thicker then the normal base plate which makes for an even better cut. I would definitely recommend it. :)

I just use a thin magnetic sheet in my 'sandwich'.

I have been using a thin magnetic sheet although sometimes the smaller dies move.
