I may be late to the party on this one, but have you tried the Big Shot Embossing Mats yet? I know it’s silly, but I just them for the very first time. I bought them last spring, when the annual catalog first came out. But I never took them out of the package! I like to see how to use new toys before I try them out myself. Suffice it to say, I’ll be using these a lot in the future!
TheBig Shot Embossing Mats extend the use of your framelits, thinlits, and edgelits dies. Now, instead of just being a cutting tool, the dies can be turned into an embossing tool. You’re no longer limited to the Big Shot Embossing Folders. The Big Shot Embossing Mats make quick and easy work of it, too. Here’s Chad to demonstrate how to use them. Hint: the cutting edge faces UP, not down!
