hi jen636
stick your piece of foam onto the same side as the raised image this will prevent your paper or card getting stuck in your die and the plastic square can be used on other side if you find that it does not cut very well hope this will help you.......also did you buy the quickutz converter as well as the sizzix one as you need both of them to work....if not place a piece of cardboard (about the same size as the white cutting mat) underneath the white mat .....I hope you understand this I am not very good at explainig things...good luck
