These Hybrid Embossing Folders use to scare me a little bit – hard to believe that you can put a die in an embossing folder and not wreck it – but it works! So easy to die cut and emboss at the same time.

  1. Thanks for the directions and dimensions. I have wanted to try. The fold always seemed way too difficult for me. Your directions seem easy. Because of you I will be able to try this fold.
