Embossing on 5-1/2 x 12 paper

the rubber isfound in the plumbing department of Lowes or Home Depot.. ask  for plumber packing sheets. they come in  1/16 or 1/18...I used the 1/16 with the B plate (the idea of the rubber came from Susie's Heartprints website.

  14. Love this tutorial, however I have been to Home Depot and Lowe's for PLUMBERS RUBBER and they have never heard of such a thing. Is there another name it might be called?
    thanks for your help

  15. Nilda,
    I noticed that you have your plates marked Cutting or Embossing. Is that because the cutting plate gets marked up and then shows up on your embossed designs? This is what I thought. But, will you set me straight??
