Ask for Penny and give them product numbers and descriptions so it is easy for them and you. I am going to start posting this info each time, since I get numerous questions after each post. LOL

This is the tutorial for the folded card embossing. Cut the card at 4.25" x 11". Fold in half. |

Place the small embossing folder where you want it embossed. Run it thru the Cuttlebug. In order to avoid the crease mark from the top edge of the folder, when you feel the roller getting close to the edge of the folder, back the roller off and reverse the roller so it comes back out the way it went in. If that does not work, add a layer of thin paper underneath the cardstock and that may eliminate the crease. |

Next, position the cuttlebug folder on the front of the folded card so that it aligns to your bottom design and the top folded edge. Sometimes your design will flow over to the back of the card, but if you measure just right, you can come right up to the folded edge with the side edge of the embossing folder nicely. |

Run the prepared folder and card thru the Cuttlebug and this is the finished view of the embossing.
The dots (in this case) will show thru to the inside front of the card, but it looks kinda cool. If you do not like that, just cover the inside of the front of the card with another layer of cardstock or paper. |

Finished View:
Cuttlebug Embossing on SINGLE LAYER of cardstock. Once finished, glue this to a folded card either with a matte layer underneath, or without. Some trimming may be needed.
Step by step follows.
Card # 2832 is a finished example.

This is a SINGLE layer sheet for embossing. Position the folder on the top half of the cardstock and run it thru the Cuttlebug. |

Position the folder on the bottom portion of the single layer of cardstock and run it thru the Cuttlebug. I only roll it far enough to emboss the folder and not all the way so that it rolls over the previous embossing.
