Big Shot Materials List for Bigz and Originals Dies

Being that I have shared numberous projects using the Big Shot, I thought I should share this great list of materials that can be used with the Bigz & Original Dies. It's not just for paper. Try a few of these items and you will be pleasantly surprised with how creative you can be using your Big Shot.
