Sizzix - Stacey Park - Dimensional Embossing Diffuser - Base Plate and Frame Starter Kit - Variety Shapes - Plates and Insert Pieces - Bundle

Revolutionize your embossing projects with the Dimensional Diffuser Bundle by Stacey Park for Sizzix! This must-have set includes a Diffuser Base Plate, a Diffuser Frame, and 4 unique Diffuser Plate shapes - rectangle, diamond, circle, and oval - with their 4 corresponding shaped Diffuser Inserts. This system is ideal for times when you do not want embossed texture across your whole design! Designed to work seamlessly with Sizzix A6 3D and Multi-Level embossing folders and the Sizzix Big Shot Die Cutting and Embossing machine (all sold separately), this tool lets you create flat, smooth, unembossed shapes within your embossed paper. These flat shapes then allow for personalizing with stamps, sentiments, and/or other focal designs. The diffuser plates and shape inserts can even be used as stencils to ink around or within your unembossed design. Ideal for focal points on card fronts, scrapbook layouts, tags, and more, these Dimensional Diffusers open up a world of endless creative possibilities and let you achieve custom looks with ease.

• The Diffuser Frame has finger holds on both side to be able to easy fold the frame while sliding the Diffuser Base Plate and Diffuser Plates in and out
• The Diffuser Base Plate is similar to a cutting plate and has nibs you can feel
• Works with Sizzix’s A6 3D Embossing Folders and Multi-Level folders (all sold separately)
• Use Stacey Park and Sizzix's Framelits dies (sold separately) to add coordinating layers to your unembossed focal point
• The A6 Revelaz Sandable cardstock packs (sold separately) work great for additional embossing effects
• Works great with size A6 paper or cut your paper down to your size/shape preference
• Tip: Before using your Dimensional Diffuser tool system it is helpful to prime your Diffisuer Plates by sliding them in and out of the Diffuser Frames several times 

Instructions:

1. Slide the Diffuser Base Plate into the Diffuser Fame (nibs facing out) and click in place. You can move the plate around in the different "click in" spots depending on where you'd like your shape to be located within your embossed design.
2. Flip the Diffuser Frame with the Diffuser Base Plate over.
3. Add your A6 size paper in your Sizzix A6 Embossing Folder
4. Make sure your Embossing Folder is facing down (print side down) and place within the embossing folder opening within the Diffuser Frame. You will want the embossing folder positioned so that the opening of the folder enters your Sizzix Big Shot Die Cutting machine first. 
5. Add the Diffuser Plate (nibs facing out). Slide the Plate in the place and move the plate around in the different "click in" spots depending on where you'd like your shape to be located within your embossed design.
6. Sandwich your Dimensional Diffuser system in between the 2 Cutting Pads that come with your Sizzix Big Shot machine
7. Roll through your Sizzix Big Shot machine twice
8. Take your paper out of the Embossing Folder and then lightly mist your paper with water on both sides
9. Put only your paper (without the Embossing Folder) back into the embossing folder opening within the Diffuser Frame
10. Slide the top Diffuser Plate back in and center it and your paper to line up with the shape
11. Place your Diffuser Insert into the matching shape opening of your Diffuser Plate
12. Create the same sandwich with your 2 Big Shot Cutting Pads and roll the Dimensional Diffuser System through your machine slowly (Please note: It will feel tight when rolling over your shape Diffuser Insert - this is normal. Think of it like a little speed bump!)
13. Take your Diffuser Shape and Plate out and remove your piece of paper
14. You are left with a beautiful embossed design with a perfectly diffused, flat shape!

  Exciting tool

  At firstblush, this bundle looked pricey, but when I considered the many varieties of cards I could make, I relented and went for it. I'm excited to take time to learn and use it.
