If you have purchased any of the new 3D Embossing Dies, then you are going to love this video. They are a different style from the Dynamic Folders so you need to adjust slightly when using them. Stampin’ Up has put together a great video to give you a little information on how to use them. The thickness of the folders is a little different so it will help to have a bit of training for using these folders. With slight adjustments, you will be fine. Take a look:
You can purchase any of our Dies from my online store here. We have an extensive assortment of Dies which are used for multiple projects. I love working with our dies and I love the new 3D Embossing Dies Stampin’ Up! has added to our collection.
