Description & Details

Cut thousands of steel rule and thin metal Sizzix dies in your Sizzix machine using this versatile set of polycarbonate plastic Sizzix Cutting Pads. These clear cutting pads, also known as cutting mats, make it easy to see that your paper and die remain properly aligned while loading in the machine and cutting. Pair these clear cutting pads with the Sizzix Standard Magnetic Platform to get perfect cuts every time from your chemically etched wafer thin metal dies from Sizzix and dozens of other brands. And weighing in at only a quarter of a pound, these pads are lightweight to take on the road with your machine for a crop.

Contents: 2 pads (1 pair)

Size: 8 3/4" x 6 1/8" x 1/8"

Plus, you can get double use from these Sizzix pads - when one side of these cutting pads is worn out, flip them over to get more cutting life from them in your BIGkick, Big Shot, or Vagabond machine. When both sides are worn out, then it’s time for replacement cutting pads.

This item is for use with all models of the Sizzix Big Shot, all Vagabond machines and the Sizzix BIGkick. Each of the Sizzix Standard Cutting Pads are made of the highest quality polycarbonate plastic and each pad is approximately 8 3/4" x 6 1/8" x 1/8".

Here’s just a sampling of what our Scrapbook.com customer reviews say about Sizzix Cutting Pads:

These are great to use with the Big Shot.” - suzyqz007

These cutting pads are sturdy and last for many projects.” – codybear

excellent cutting pads” - jotroup1

good quality product” – daisyhill

I've used other brands with my big shot but none work as well or as reliably as [these].” - Deejay5

Worried that clear cutting pads will be difficult to find on a messy desk? These standard pads are also available in mint, coral, and blueberry. There’s a color of cutting pad to go with every craft room decor!

Compatible Machines: Sizzix Big Shot, Sizzix Big Shot Pro, Sizzix Big Shot Plus, Sizzix Big Shot Express, Sizzix Big Kick, Sizzix Vagabond, Sizzix Vagabond 2

Compatible Dies: Sizzix Bigz, Sizzix Originals, Sizzix Movers & Shapers (with Magnetic Base Tray), all brands of chemically etched wafer thin metal dies (with Sizzix Multipurpose Platform or Standard Magnetic Platform)

Instructions: To use these cutting pads with a steel rule die, place the die between the pads with paper face down over the part of the die design you would like to cut. If needed, use washi or masking tape to secure the paper in place to get perfect placement of your paper. Set the die and pad “sandwich” on the cutting path of the machine, and turn the crank to move it through.

To use these cutting pads with a thin metal die requires an accessory platform such as the Sizzix Magnetic Platform or the Sizzix Multipurpose Platform. To create your die cutting “sandwich”, begin by placing the platform on the bottom. On top of the platform, place the first cutting pad. Then place your paper right side up on top of the cutting pad. Place the thin metal die on top of the paper, with the cutting edge down (in contact with the paper). Finish the sandwich by placing the second cutting pad on top. Set the die and pad “sandwich” on the cutting path of the machine, and turn the crank to move it through.

For easy reference of how to assemble “sandwiches” with these cutting pads for other types of dies and Sizzix accessories, use the Sizzix Sandwich Booklet.

TIP: These polycarbonate plastic cutting pads often make loud creaking, cracking and snapping noises while being cranked through the die cutting machines that can sound alarming. Do not panic if your machine makes these noises while using these cutting pads! This is a normal part of machine operation and the cutting pads are designed to withstand these pressures.

How to extend the life of your cutting pads: Since these Sizzix cutting pads are double-sided, you can use both sides of them before replacing them. When they get worn on one side, just flip them over and use the fresh side!

If the pads show signs of warping, cut by setting your die into the depressed area of them. That will help ease pressure on the cutting pad. To help prevent your cutting pads from warping, make sure that you vary the location that you are cutting on your pads. Use the entire pad surface and spread your cutting around!

    this product does work

    Sizzix cutting pads do the intended job. I like the new beveled edge that eases the pads under the rollers. On the other hand, these new pads seem to bend easier than the original pads. Is Sizzix using a different material? In any case, keep flipping the pads and moving dies around...the result will be less warping. I like the size of these pads better than the extended cutting pads..easier to move around.

    Mystified

    Thats what I am. Why do they make a product that gets messed up just for doing what these do? Why can't they make a method or material that doesn't get all messed up just for using their die cuts? Am I wrong here? There has to be a better way.

    Great Cutting Pads

    They do what they are supposed to do. I wanted to have a backup set just in case. They arrived on time and as always the packing was great, price was right and I love shopping at scrapbook.com. :)

    A Must Have

    The cutting pads for the Sizzix Big Shot are a necessary part of equipment to use the machine. The time between replacements really varies. It depends on how much die cutting I do. They usually last between 3 and 6 months, rarely they last a year. It is important to keep turning them, using both sides as they last a lot longer that way.

    Sizzix cutting pad

    This precision engineered acrylic plate is the exact thickness to go thru the Sizzix Big Shot machine. There is a top and a bottom one and the die and the paper are wafered in between. Perfect diminsions everytime.

    Glad o have a spare!

    My plates are getting pretty well etched up, which is starting to show through on some of my cardstock. Went ahead and purchased a new set of plates and was surprised at how inexpensive they were! Glad to have some fresh new ones!

  • sizzix cutting pads

    It is easy to order from this company. They let you know when your package has been shipped and even let me know that my package was going to be delayed.
    Product is packaged well and price is reasonable. What more can you ask for??

    Very pleased

    These cutting plates work great! I'm set now as I ordered this set of 2 plates and accidentally ordered 1 set,so now I have 3 sets! Sometimes I wish the people putting your order together and find you adding more of 1 of the same thing would question you as to do you really want 3 sets? Maybe that would bother some people, but I really wouldn't mind because I really don't need 3 sets of plates for Die cutting. Suppose I could send them back, but I don't want to pay for the shipping. My fault, but just saying! 🙄
    I will double check My orders closely from now on!

  • New cutting pads

    So glad that Scrapbook.com had these. Mine was wearing out. This is such a great website to find things that work with the big shot since they are not longer with the stamp kit company that I receive each month. Very helpful customer service people who helped with my finding what I needed. Would and will recommend this web site to friends and family.

Questions & Answers
  • I am using the Vagabond to emboss cards. After almost 50 cards, the machine stopped embossing the entire card.
    One of the plates I've been using in the sandwich has a few cracks in it. I flip the plate every other time I put a sandwich through. The plate seems to he warped all over the place now.
    Is the plate the reason why my card is not getting completely embossed?
    At what point do you replace the plates? The information above seemed very vague.   By: Lmrocha2010 (31-Oct-19) Helpful Question?  Yes  |  No Thank you! Report Inappropriate This question has been reported. Thank you!
    • If you have warping this could very well be why embossing or die cutting would be uneven. There is not a specific time frame in which plates will have to be replaced. Basically, when you start running into issues is when you should replace them. Dies will cut into the plates but if you are having actual cracks, it sounds like it would be time to replace them.

    • Hi,

      I have the flu with complications so I am kind of fuzzy about this and everything right now. Sorry. What I did was call scrapbook.com and asked a lot of questions. The woman who I spoke with was great and guided me through and I got the correct product. They are very accommodating and polite there. Good luck and happy scrapbooking : ). If I felt better I would do more research for you but am feeling crummy. Take care.

    Since Cuttlebug discontinued so did its cutting plates, and I need replacements but can't find them anymore. Will these work for Cuttlebug as well? I know someone asked the same question but the answer said they shouldn't be used for Cuttlebug but didn't say whether they "would" work for Cuttlebug... Please help? Thanks so much! :)   By: User (17-Mar-20) Helpful Question?  Yes  |  No Thank you! Report Inappropriate This question has been reported. Thank you!
    • I found this answer very helpful from another customer.

      These pads are not made for the Cuttlebug so you shouldn't use them. When cutting thinlits on a Cuttlebug, however, I found that it would help them cut if I added a shim to my sandwich. This could be a folded piece of cardstock or a piece of chipboard. You just need something to give the thinlits a little lift to meet the rollers of the machine. I hope this helps!

    • From what others have said these are the same thickness as the B plates for the Cuttlebug but we have not tested them to see if they will work.

    Will these work on an Accuequilt machine?   By: User (05-Oct-17) Helpful Question?  Yes  |  No Thank you! Report Inappropriate This question has been reported. Thank you!
    • I don’t for sure but if I had to guess, I would say no. They may look the same but they may a tiny bit to thick or then. Try looking on the package to see if they work in other machines. I would hate to try and then jam up your machine. Another option is to go to the Sizzix web site and email them your question. They have been prompt getting back to me.
