Embossing with Nestabilities™ Die templates

Add beautiful dry embossed frames to your card base with Nestabilities™ templates.

Supplies

Step-by-Step

1. Step 1

   To emboss the die shape into the folded card stock to form the card base,
   start sandwich with Master Emboss Mat, continue layering the tan rubber embossing mat , folded cardstock and die positioned at desired spot on the card front with cutting edge down.
   
   Finish sandwich with the second Master Emboss Mat.
   

   

2. Step 2

   With the long portion (with the logo) of the Wizard machine to the back and the black balled handle to the front, slip ‘sandwich’ into the back of the machine, pushing firmly.

   

3. Step 3

   Holding the back corner of the sandwich, raise and lower the handle repeatedly to push sandwich through machine. You will hear a ratchet sound.
   
   Tip:
   When the sandwich is almost entirely through the Wizard, be prepared to ‘catch it’ as it exits the short side of the machine.
   

   

4. Step 4

   Remove cardstock from the sandwich. The beautifully embossed detail does not cut into the card front base.

   

5. The backside of the card base.

   

6. Step 5

   Finish card as desired with stamps, inks & embellishments.
