Brilliant!

[@jeanwinkler7885]

This is great Lou. Thank you

[@gingerpayne7310]

Amazing tip

[@sandranorth0009]

Couldn't you just run the die through the machine with the rubber mat on it so that it embosses instead of cuts?

[@lolal1026]

I think you would risk cutting into the rubber mat using the die

[@sandranorth0009]

@@lolal1026 you wouldn't if you put the rubber mat on top of the die that is face down on the card!

[@lolal1026]

@@sandranorth0009 something to try....thanks

[@rtd1791]

Yes. You could emboss the die as well. In this case where the die is approximately half the width of the die, you’d have to do it twice if you wanted the entire width of the card embossed. It would also end up looking like two strips of embossed card rather than an all over design.

[@hazelyoung2046]

Another great hack Lou xx

[@kerriegood1046]

Thanks Lou x

[@brif5777]

Love this idea. What are the dimensions of your rubber mat?? Thank you, Lou.

[@bonnerdebbie]

Thanks Lou! This makes foiled paper look like you used a foiling machine!

[@mariapatriciachavez214]

❤❤❤ great 👍

[@dawndiehl4570]

Love this hack thank you! Went to your website for USA, couldn’t find that butterfly die you’re using. I did however order the slimline butterfly die set available. Sure would like to have the one your using. Can you tell me where to find it? Thanks! 😁💕

[@brif5777]

Where did you get your rubber mat?? If I can't find it what else can I use?? How thin does it need to be?? Happy Crafting from Phoenix, AZ. ❤️🤗

[@jeanwinkler7885]

Thank you Lou. Do you happen to have ideas for small embossing folders? I have received many over the years but don't know how to use them on a card as it's only like a 2 x 2 area

[@c.r.mcleod8959]

You could emboss several of them and use them as a tile or window type effects. Also colour them etc with inks for different effects too. Lotsa options it's just a matter of playing & experimenting with them. They'd also look great on tags, mini envelopes etc too. 😊
