embossing diffuser



just a test/sample piece
i woke in the night realising that the new embossing diffusers could be used to add TWO different embossed textures to a piece, so i bashed this out to test it using the honeycomb and stripes folders .. and it worked!
just run your first piece through then replace the shape with the corresponding plate then run through with your other chosen folder.  i taped the smaller shape in place.

lots of possibilities with this i think!

enjoy your bank holiday weekend - its gonna be a wet one!
