This is a GAME CHANGER for me! Thank you so much! I have lots of sizzix embossing folders and I was getting so very frustrated. They were getting stuck, they were spitting out and I was pulling my hair out 😂 Love from Ireland 🇮🇪 ❤

THANK YOU so much for sharing this information. I recently cleaned out my craft room and pulled out all my Sizzix embossing folders and put them in a give-away bag. I am on my way to retrieve these folders now.

🤩 I have been using my cuttlebug mat for embossing with the Gemini since I got it 😂 when AG came out with the Empress, I bought the big mat. It's perfect every time! The flimsy one that CC gave us cut clean through with the correct sandwich. My machine just has so much pressure. Luckily I have a BigKick for my Sizzix 3D impression folders. My Gemini shoots them out of every sandwich I've tried. It doesn't reject them, they just slip out the front and the plate & shim go through the machine 😂🤣

Great tips for different embossing folders. It takes experimenting to find right combo as I've learned. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you, thank you, thank you much for this video. I’ve had nothing but grief embossing my AG dies until now. 🥰 🤗

I did the metal shim alone to use embossing folders (other than hers) with the AG Empress ...just like that, and the metal shim curled so badly, it popped the front flap thing off from the front of the Anna Griffin Emress! I used the Anna Griffin embossing folder like they said to for the Gemini II, but had to use the magnetic mat to get the full impression. I am loving it so far. Now I will try the dies. Thank you for the tips! I do not want to ruin the magnetic mat.

Definitely will try this on a recent purchase of Sizzix Winter Snowflakes embossing folder. Hoping it will work as it's a beautiful folder. Thanks for your video.

Thank you so very much for sharing this. I have always wondered about using dies on different machines.

[mrsmcphate]

Thanks for this! I've been struggling with my 3D folders and my Gemini. Going to try your tip tomorrow! Again, TFS!

Thanks so much for the wonderful tutorial! I have several of the embossing folders and didn't use because they are so thick. I'll be using my embossing folders moving forward. Of course I'll also test as I know each machine is different. Take care! 💖

Just tried on my original gemini and Gemini II and it worked fine! Thanks again!
