We still have 13 days left in Sale-a-Bration! The ultra-versatile background of this card features the Softly Sophisticated embossing folder, available FREE in the $100 level bundle. Just look how it takes this very simple card up to FANCY! Check out the tutorial below.

I don’t know about you, but when I’m making the tough decision about what to spend my money on and what to choose for free during Sale-a-Bration, I look for the most versatile things I can find – we just can’t have it all! While this bundle is at the $100 level, the elegance of the embossing folder and the variety of the stamps in the stamp set (2-step stamping!) made it a clear winner for me.

Here’s another post using the bundle.

One question I have gotten about the embossing folder is what plates need to be used in the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine. It is a 3-D embossing folder, so you need plates #1 and #4. This isn’t stated clearly in the catalog. Need a #4 plate (Specialty Plate)? Order it here today!
