Love love love the “Lift Me Up” Bundle with the Hot air balloons. Can You see the embossing? I embossed with the sunburst die!
This was made for a swap. Here are a few Pictures to show you how to do the embossing with a die:
You will need the Silicone Mat, 6×6 white backing cardboard (from the DSP packages) and 6×6 chipboard packaging (from the glimmer paper or specialty paper packages), the Magnetic plate and 1 cutting plate. Plus the card stock you are going to emboss.
Stack your 6×6 pieces and your Silicone mat as shown:
Put them on top of your magnetic plate with the die CUTTING SIDE UP! (no cutting plate yet)
Put just 1 cutting plate on top of the die
Run it through your big shot and your card stock should look like this:
POINTS TO NOTE:
- This is a lighter, more subtle, embossing than Embossing folders.
- Every big shot is different. I used just one white DSP cardboard. I used 2 at the beginning and it tore my card stock. You may need to add a 6×6 piece of copy paper, card stock or a 2nd white DSP cardboard depending your Bigshot tension.
- Stamp your card stock first.
Many Thanks to my demo friend Connie for teaching me how to do this!
