It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward in your chosen community.
Have you been overwhelmed on where to start? Everywhere you look someone is asking for help whether it be time, money, or supplies. But you’re not sure where to start.
Here’s a good place to start. It’s called VolunteerMatch and can be found at https://www.volunteermatch.org/. You submit your local area and it shows you matches for volunteering. Then you have to find out which one is good for you. But at least the mountain might be just a bit smaller now.
It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended! Today is a two-fer. I will show you how to emboss with your dies and how to use your Specialty Plate at the same time.
For this you will need your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Grab your die and a piece of card stock. Set up like normal but with a few pieces missing. Your sandwich or platforms for your Machine from bottom to top should be #1 (big chunk platform), no #2 (adapter plate), #3 (clear cutting plate), card stock, die, and #4 (specialty plate). If you are going to do this technique a lot I would recommend purchasing a second Specialty Plate as the dies do dig in to the surface. That way you could have one for this technique and another for the embossing folders that doesn’t have “embellishments”.
To see this technique in action please tune in tonight for the Facebook Live at 7 pm.
It’s Technique Tuesday! Today’s blog post is more of a tip than a technique.
When you are die cutting and the die is pretty straight across turn it diagonally. If you can get that bar on the die to not hit the pressure roller in the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine straight across but at more of an angle, you will not get that infamous clunk as much. It will also not be as difficult to manage to roll through.
