I was very pleased with this card the embossing on the front was done with my Cuttlebug machine and an old copper stencil that I had. To do this you will need a rubber matt which I made from purchasing Gasket rubber from Clarks Rubber, it is black rubber and very cheap I got 3 pieces 15cm x 17cm for about $4.00. The sandwich for the cuttlebug is A plate, B plate, heavy card, rubber, card to emboss on then stencil then B plate. You might have to experiment with this sandwich be careful not to have it too thick or you could break a plate. I then embossed 2 sets of lines around the image with embossing tool and the cutting line of my fiskars cutter. I trimmed the image close to the second set of embossed lines then mounted on bronze shimmer paper. I also embossed the A5 card folded in half, with the swiss dots embossing folder matching up the dots and putting it through again to get it a bit wider. You need to pop out the flattened dots with an embossing tool. I used circle punches, punching small circle first then bigger circle to get rings in Bronze shimmer paper.
