Embossing with Cutting Dies


While usually you use dies for cutting, they can also be used for embossing.  This card shows that technique used with my lattice die.  Instead of making the sandwich with the two plastic cutting plates, I put the rubber embossing mat on top of the cutting side, creating this emboss instead.  Note that I also used the leftovers from a red lattice die cut to add a bit more color to the corners.
