@Blue5Daze, thanks so much and I am thrilled that you are learning a lot of new techniques. Trust me those dies are just the tip of the iceberg. I wish I could get to play more. Trying now to think up my Christmas cards.
I can't thank you enough!! I did have that happen where I replaced the die and never realized why the embossing was off!!! And here I thought it was me. I am going to tape those dies from now on! Sure seemed like a good idea to turn them over but now I know why its not. Thanks again!!!
Great idea! Although you could use a pencil and just turn it over and actually use the other side for the front. Never thought of tracing the die!! It increases what I already have so much!!!
@barbanjohn, I thought the same thing. Although these dies look symmetrical many of them are not. If you do not place the paper back in the die in the exact spot, it will be off. I realized that in the early days when one of my ovals came out of the die prior to embossing. I just put it back in willy-nilly and my embossing lines were off. The same with many of the scallops. The dies are shape specific ---so be careful. :)
@newsletters57, thanks for taking the time to watch them. You know this reply thing has been fickle as of late. Sometimes I can other times I cannot. Glad this is one of the good times. Want to thank you for visiting my blog. If you have not stopped by lately, I have posted the Fall Cards from my latest Vee-dio.
Loved it i like how you used this technique i was using my cuttlebug to cut out my spellbinder die cuts and i broke my cuttlebug never again will i force it thru again now will have to wait for a new cuttlebug lol i have enjoyed watching all your videos this year thanks have a Great New Year love connie :0)
@QuiltingConnieB I am soooo sorry that you broke your CB. I use the ol if the handle doesn't start to roll when I push in the plates, my sandwich is too thick. Until you get your new bug--HSN has one on special--just trace around the outside and the inside of the same die. Thanks for watching and supporting me this past year. It means a lot.
Just found your videos. I'm finding them fascinating.
There are just so many ideas of what you can do to make cards, pendants, and embellishments .
It is mind bogging to deceide just what you want to buy.
There goes my money for food and clothing. LOL

I was wondering why the gap was so big and I don't want to buy 2 sets one small and one large to get the 1/8 of an inch gap! Awesome tip! TFS Sarah
