Hey I was not sure if you would know this....but instead of using Spellbinders tan mats can you use Texturz Silicone Rubber mats from Stampin up? Are they thicker than the Spellbinders?

[cherryjewel]

I'm not sure...I've never used the SU rubber mats. If you find out, please let me know, though!

I did this and the embossing doesn't show up so well only 10% of the embossing show :(

[cherryjewel]

Have u tried putting 1 or 2 pcs of cardstock on top of the 2nd Spellbinders mat? That will give a little more thickness. The embossing shows up really well with mine using this recipe, but I think every machine is a little different. So you might need to tweak the recipe and find out what works for you. My friend uses this recipe: A plate, Fiskars plate face up, Paper/Cardstock to be embossed face down, Spellbinders mat, C plate. I tried her recipe and it's way too thick for my machine.

Hey! I figured out to use it I did the exact thing but I flipped upside down so the A plate was on the top instead of the bottom. Thanks :)

[cherryjewel]

Yay!!! :o)

Having met the creator of Spellbinders dies, all you need is a flexible mouse pad...works like a dream.

The mouse pad works. Just cut it to the size of your plate. 

I just got a bug and have had the texture plates forever.

My sandwich was A Plate, Texture Plate, Card Stock, Mouse Pad, 1 thin Chipboard, B Plate

@levingandjenise I bought the rubber mat and the texture plate from Stampin UP and tried using them with my Texturz plates but I cannot get the right thickness to get a properly embossed image. I have tried using cardboard or a small stack of cardstock to act as a sandwich and I did get slightly better results but still haven't acheived that perfect embossed image yet.

[ArchangelBaw]

[goldyfishls]

TYFS. I ordered a cuttlebug and already have alot of Fiskars texture plates. Great idea.

[Deebi547580]

OMG, it works!!!!! Thanks so VERY much for this video. By chance I did a Google search for this combination. I have had these Fiskar plates for so long, I didn't know where I had stored them until recently. I am sooo excited,,,Yippee!!!

[halien89]

Wonderful! Using the flexible inserts for a little give is a perfect idea. Thanks for sharing!

[kiricalo]
