10 Embossing Folder Tips & Tricks | Make Your Paper Crafts Awesome!

[@tinapysh6827]

I never heard of using an embossed piece of card stock in the envelope! Love it!

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

I hope that you'll give that tip a try!

[@suekresge3345]

Where's the heart emoji rather than just the thumbs up? It's great to get these tips in order to come up with different and unique cards. Thanks, Jackie!

Love the tip about using a piece of embossed card stock as padding when mailing cards with raised embellishments. Much better than the folded paper towel that I use.

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

I'm so glad you like that tip Linda!

[@vickibk3]

Is additional postage necessary if this method is used?

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

@@vickibk3 It really would depend on your card and the weight. For me, because I don't put a lot on my cards it's never been an issue. If in doubt, check with your post office.

[@hollylowery26]

@@vickibk3 normally if you don't go over 1/4 inch of thickness you are good with only 1 stamp. I took a piece of cardboard and cut a 1/4 inch slot into it. I check my cards if I'm not sure.

Thanks for these pointers. I emboss a lot, but loved the one where you emboss plain paper to put on your card with sequins or other decorations. Good idea.

Thank you Jackie. The double embossing is a new technique for me. I will try it👍

[@hollylowery26]

Thank you Jackie. You definitely came up with several ideas I haven't heard before. Like protecting embellishments. Only running half the folder. Using foil cardstock. The quilted look. I need to re-watch and write them all down.

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

I'm glad you picked up some new tips!

[@charlottemarek3045]

I've tried partial embossing by letting the cardstock hang off the edge of the folder but you get an unsightly line across it that way. I always thought you weren't supposed to run things partway through your machine and then back it up, so I never tried it that way. Your results are beautiful!

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

I hope you'll give this method a try! Thanks for watching!

[@dawnhf4590]

Jackie, this is a FANTASTIC video! You gave me so many great ideas. I really need to try the inked folder technique.

Great ideas Jackie! Learned several new tips. Thank you!

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

[@inekegeernaert801]

WOW, what awesome tips, Jackie! Your tip on the extra embossed layer to protect rhinestones won't really work, as Dutch Post have increased postage to almost one dollar ... based on weight. Adding just one extra card stock layer will cost double! And, as a card maker, I send many cards, as I'm sure you do too.

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

I'm in the U.S. and it's not a problem here unless your card is already very thick.

[@inekegeernaert801]

@@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis Oh, I know, Jackie! It's just those silly Dutch!

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

You're welcome!

[@vernalapp2306]

Great ideas Jackie, thanks for sharing. Wondering if you have any control about how many ads interrupt your videos, it has gotten beyond enjoyable with every couple of minutes an ad pops in and then to wait for the video to start again. I am asking because it seems they are picking your videos more than other demonstrators that I watch.

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

I'm sorry that's not something I control but remember----it's the ads that make the money for YT which is what allows it to be a free platform for us to use.

.when you run your cardstock in two embossing folders does one not be embossed so much.

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

No, it's not a problem at all.

[@lissathompson547]

Do you mist your paper with water before embossing?

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

You don't need to.

[@lucygriffioen5093]

What's the difference between a 3D folder and a regular folder. What makes it 3D?

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

3D folders give varying impressions throughout the paper that you are embossing. The 3d folders, because of their details are thicker folders than the standard embossing folders.

[@JoyceMeyerJunkJournals]

Any tips for embossing with Big Shot Foldaway? Thinner embossing folders from Michael’s and Hobby Lobby won’t emboss as they are too thin- If I add the second clear plate it is too thick to pass through the machine.

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

I'm sorry, I am unfamiliar with that machine and how it works. I would suggest contacting where you purchased it from and see what they recommend.

[@karensmith1540]

Help me when embossing folder that is bent. How do I repair

[@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis]

I don't think there is anything you can do to flatten it, but it should still work. the reason it bends is because you may not have the sandwich correct and it's putting too much pressure on it. Check to make sure you have the sandwhich for your machine correct.
