#4503 A7 I used Beckett Expression 130 lb cardstock for this because the Sizzix Folders emboss so deeply. After cutting and embossing the ornament shapes, I used the Chart Pak Adjustable Burnisher (has a rolling ball tip) to add the indented frame around each die cut. It works the same as the tan mat and the layered plates used with the Cuttlebug or Sizzix, but is MUCH easier. Reposition the cut/embossed piece back into the die, embossed side down and die blade side UP, and run the rolling ball burnisher along that inside ridge of the die to create that edge. Because the shape is now embossed and the cardstock is heavier than the normal 80 lb. I usually use, it takes a little more effort to push the burnisher around the shape to make a clean crisp line.
