Sizzix Texture Boutique Embossing Machine Beginner's Kit Review

I love this embossing machine! I already have a Silhouette SD digital cutter and didn't need the more expensive machines that do cutting and embossing. The Texture Boutique Embossing Machine is very reasonably priced and can use most of the embossing folders on the market for other machines. It has a small footprint, is easy to transport, and is stylish too. I'm having a great time making cards and love the embossed results!!

Cricut Cartridge, Wild Card Review

I got this on black friday - was going to return it, but I'm glad I didn't. It's pretty spiffy.
BEFORE I started on any projects - I made sure to test the cut/size that I wanted is proportionate to what I wanted the layout to look like - and I would test on plain old printer paper. Also the Fit to Page function is helpful in making the envelopes that's the largest possible. I used the fit to page function ONLY for the envelope.
ACTUALLY - First step should be to make the envelope, and then make the card and the components for the card. I did it completely backward and got really miffed that my card was too big to fit inside the envelop.
