Final embossing hint - #5

Technique #5 - Embossing Long Strips of Paper
I am starting with the fifth technique - please check each day to see hints #1 through #4!

Most embossing folders make that impossible, but leave it to Close To My Heart to take a great idea and take it one step further. 
The top of our folders have a 4 1/2 slit in them. To emboss a strip (great for a 12" x 12" layout!), place the top portion of your paper in the folder and run it through your machine. After that, pull your strip up through so that you can emboss the bottom portion. Be sure to line up your pattern with what you've already embossed.

Practice makes perfect! My second and third ones looked much better than my first one!
Credit and appreciations go to Karen Pedersen!
