Sizzix 3-D Embossing Folder 662715, Mechanics by Tim Holtz, One Size

I bought this item for a different reason than embossing. I wanted to make a mould of the positive side of the item in order to make a ceramic mould for using with glass.I,have not used it for its original purpose but I am sure it woud make a very good job with paper or thin card.

these are very detailed 3d embossing folders and require a good quality card stock ,other wise cheap card will crack and split . so if you are investing in the best quality embossing folder then don't expect to get a perfect impression without the best quality card too.

This is a lovely embossing folder and makes a deep impression on card. It's especially effective on mirror card.

Really lovely detail and it embossed the card very well.

I needed an embossing folder to help with designing men's cards. Most of the stuff on the market is feminine so making decent cards for men can be challenging! As this embossing folder had gears on it i thought it would be great to 'man up' said card making! I didn't really pay attention to the size of the folder when i ordered, so when it arrived i was a little disappointed to find out it was fairly small 14.6x11.4. The folder itself is fairly thick, but went through my Gemini machine fine with the cutting plate and metal shim sandwich. No other sandwiches would work. The embossing effect is pretty decent... nice deep embossing. I then used cosmic shimmer metallic silver to outline the embossing.. overall it was a decent effect and did make a mescaline look.

Thick embossing folder so only needed top and bottom sheet in the machine. Used dark silver and gold/brown to create different deigns which gave a metal look. Different from all my fancy flowers etc. Great.

Luv it, embosses beautifully

Really pleased as this is so different to most embossing folders. Stunningdetail
