Cuttlebug

So the cuttlebug is a great tool for adding texture to your layouts. But I am confused about how I should do a video on the cuttlebug. I've watched about 50 videos on the CB and I get bored everytime someone uses film to crank the handle while the camera is staring blankly at a hand going round and round. That doesn't make compelling video, and I amazed no one else has realized how boring and useless that is to the viewer. So I will make a video on the cuttlebug and make sure that part is left out. See you soon

I know what you mean about sometimes the videos being boring. The only thing I can imagine why they show stuff like that is for people viewing the video who may have never used the machine before.
Videos are how a lot of newbies learn how to use the various die cutting machines and other assorted tools. I've seen other videos on YouTube where they skip steps and just assume the viewer knows what is going on. Those can also be equally annoying as the boring ones....lol
I've been reading a few posts on your blog and really appreciate the detail you go into with which buttons to press on the CE with the projects you've made. I have other die cutting machines but not one on the scale of the CE. All of those buttons can be a little overwhelming for someone like me who is new to the CE. Without people like you out here posting this stuff, I would be really frustrated trying to figure it out on my own :) Thank you so much :)
