THANK YOU! I have seen so many card videos with a dies used to emboss and have loved the look. But no one shows or tells how to emboss with a die. I have an old Big Shot. I used a plate, 110 card stock, a 80 lb shim and 2nd plate. Came out perfect and also embossed the 80 lb card stock as well. Thank you again for your perfectly easy to follow video.

Thank you! I'm very new to die cutting but was trying to emboss with a die last night and it kept cutting the card when using the recommended sandwich. I have the Kit N Caboodle Pro Cut. I was worried what sandwich to try that wouldnt damage my plates/mats. Just tried replacing rubber mat with a piece of cardstockcand it worked perfectly! Thanks again 😊

Really helpful. This is the only video I’ve found which addresses my problem. I’ve had the same problem with my Gemini cutting through the cardstock when dry embossing with dies, when using their embossing mat and instructions. I’ll give the cardstock shim tip a go. Thanks for the video🙂

[@RebeccaKeppel]

So glad to hear that Sue! Not that you were having the same problem lol, that this was helpful! It was making me so frustrated because I knew dry embossing with dies should work but I kept getting parts cut out! Thanks for watching!

[@RebeccaKeppel]

Well I am glad (not glad but you know what I mean) that it is not only the Gemini that has the cutting through issue with the embossing mat. Sounds like they need to make the embossing mats thinner!

[@missyleftrick5525]

Rebecca Keppel I have Spellbinders Platinum and it does it. I just thought I wasn’t able to do it! Now I will try different shims!

[@susanjohnson318]

D'oh! Embossing the matching die on the design is amazing! Thank you! I am now thinking of my flower stamps and dies and planning out my weekend! :D When it comes to keeping pieces in the right order, I use Press & Seal, or purple tape (mine is actually blue painter's tape.) Recently, I was using my new Waffle Flower Rainbow Bridge Dog die. I cut the complete rainbow from scrap pieces of the seven colors and needed to keep the pieces in order with each color. As I cut each color, I would put a piece of Press & Seal on the back side of the die cuts while still in the die. It kept each of them in order and I was able to make a rainbow on my card with all the right pieces. (Did that make sense?)

[@RebeccaKeppel]

Yes! Totally makes sense! Thanks for the tip! Have a great crafty weekend!

How about doing a video on all the different inks for embossing why to use them. I literally just stood there unsure of what I should get and left with nothing. Versa mark, versa fine, stayz on , etc.....May i ask what are using as your ink blending sponges? Thank you so much for your tutorial

[@barbsanford8736]

Rebecca Keppel I found it on Amazon and I got it a few days ago and I absolutely love it it’s so creamy and I love the color! I agree with the craft supply purchases I have issues with that lol but it still is fun once in a while to get a new make up product. I am always afraid if I find some thing like that and love it they’ll discontinue it so I’ll probably have to get another one and it was less than $20 so that’s a pretty good buy! ❤️

[@RebeccaKeppel]

@@barbsanford8736 Oh yay! I'm so glad it is still around! I agree it is so conditioning, it doesn't make my lips feel dry and yucky like some lipsticks!

How do you use embossing folders with foil.

[@RebeccaKeppel]

Sounds like a great idea for a video ;)

[@jyeager868]

use the die to actually cut some paper and then do the embossing mat with the cut die (dry embossing) and you will not get the cut-through because you are not using the blades

[@vickirivera1052]

Explain a little more plz

[@RebeccaKeppel]

You can always slow down playback of a video by clicking on the settings on the video and changing the playback speed.

[@beckykent6674]

This doesn't really show how to emboss with dies as your dies cut through the paper! You need less pressure when you emboss.

[@euvid1]

Wish you would go a little slower. I find I can’t follow you.

[@RebeccaKeppel]

You can always slow down the playback of a video by hovering over the gear in the bottom right corner and adjusting the playback speed.

[@euvid1]

Wow. I didn’t know you could do that. I don’t have a gesr showing on the bottom right, but three dots on top right and it gave me a speed option. All these years and I didn’t know it. Thanks so much.
