My favorite thing to do is Art Journals. However, along this journey I recently discovered many items from work that went to the landfill that should not. It is our responsibility to do something with these items. So I will be journaling and upcycling here. I hope you join me and play along. I hope it inspires you to look around and find an item to turn into a treasure. This is my version of mixed media in the truest sense. So stay tuned...

Here is were to find me:

What a great tip. I literally have been struggling for the 3D sandwich for over a year and found your video today. I am off to Home Depot tomorrow to give this a go. Thank you.

I bought a cricket cuddle bug when it first came out so that was years and years ago have always used. It had no problems until I get the three day embossing folder and I’ve used one before that worked but this one was from a different company and it will not go through so I will try the floor sample. Thank you.

This is a great suggestion! I have a Big Shot and I'm almost ready to throw in the towel and get a Platinum 6, even though my Big Shot works great for cutting. I love 3-D embossing folders and I will certainly give your trick and try. Thanks again for the great video!

I have a brand new Big Shot and I am brand new to all of this. So frustrating nothing would work. I will head over to Home Depot in the morning and try it out!

Any hardware store ideas for a metal shim to use with intricate dies?

Hi there Elaine!
New subscriber here 😊
I have just recently purchased the Big Shot PLUS (I used to have a regular Big Shot, but it was stolen along with almost all of my craft supplies, thousands of $$$ worth, in August 2021, and I wasn’t sure if I wanted to start over again or not), and I can remember having this problem with some embossing folders.
What an excellent idea 💡!!
Can you please give me an idea of what the thickness is of the flooring sample which you used?? Because they can vary widely!!
Thank You and I look 👀 forward to watching more of your videos 😊
