Cuttlebug Embossing Folders vs. Spellbinders Impressabilities

This is my second posting for today. Please scroll down to see the first one!

I made a suggestion to my LSS, Life's Memories and More, to start carrying Spellbinders Impressabilities. She already carries Nestabilities and these Impressabilities are great! So I offered to make samples for her store to show her customers the difference between them and the Cuttlebug embossing folder.

Here is a card using the Cuttlebug embossing folder:


I used Textile Texture because the store owner, Tanya, likes this folder but has a difficult time using it.

Here is a close up for you to see the texture:


Now, here is the same card in a different color using the Spellbinders Impressabilities:


I used the Flower one as this background. When I ran it through my Cuttlebug I used this sandwich:

Plate A, Plate C, Impressabilities Template, Cardstock, Embossing Mat, Plate B

This was a little too thick and I was afraid that I was going to break off the handle. I think that next time I will replace the Plate C with another Plate B and shim it if necessary.

Here is a close up on this card:


I hope that I was able to show you the difference in the textures of these two products!!
