Embossing Tutorial How to double emboss

As promised here is the tutorial on the embossing

Okay here we go with a step by step on how to emboss with 2 embossing folders

I used Stampin' Up! Fancy Fan Folder and the Oval from Designer Frames a set of 2

1. using board cut an oval out where you want the designer oval to be

I used 3 layers of the backing from our dsp packs

2. attach this with temporary adhesive to the back of the embossing folder 

Photo's aren't perfect as I took these on Thursday when the light was poor and really foggy outside

3. Attach the ovals you have cut out to the back of the Oval designer embossing folder

I used 3 layers again cut from the backing in our dsp packs

4. next step using the Big Shot and all tabs closed and only one cutting plate

place your cardstock inside the Fancy Fan embossing folder and place on the multipurpose plate then add the cutting plate over this and crank it through

This is what you will get

5. place the oval embossing folder over the area that is blank

6. place on top of the Multipurpose plate with all tabs closed as before and place the cutting plate over the top and crank it through the Big Shot

Ta Da ..... this is what you get

Decorate as desired

I used the Elegant Butterfly punch and Papillion Potpourri stamp for mine

and the Itty Banners Framelits and matching stamp set called Itty Bitty Banners
