Hello Friends! Katy here with another quick project for you. Today’s card is super simple and is great for all occasions from just a note to sympathy and everything in between. I initially started off with this Hello Spring card, but it quickly rolled into 8 cards and I have several more I can create by using more of those small sentiments we get with most of our stamp sets. I used a single stemmed floral and some ink pad swiping and then a small sentiment. I have a video for you showing just how easy it is and share some stamps from my stash to give you ideas. I also found that stamping over VersaMagic ink with Versafine Clair will soften the look of the Versafine Clair ink giving you another way to use both of those inks.

![Spellbinders Platinum 6: Is It STILL Worth It in 2026? + PERFECT 3D Embossing Every Time!
Hello friends!
Today I’m sharing a review of the Spellbinders Platinum 6 Die Cutting Machine and how it performs with 3D embossing folders.
I cover its features and benefits, along with the best sandwich settings I’ve found for getting beautiful, consistent results from a variety of brands. I’ve included that information below for easy reference now and in the future. If I missed a company you’d like tested, let me know and I’ll be happy to try it.
For these results, I’m using the Spellbinders Universal Plate System. I also use this plate system in my Sizzix Big Shot, and I truly think it’s a worthwhile investment if you haven’t added it to your craft room yet.
Thanks so much for watching and reading.

Below is the best sandwich for 3D Embossing Folders.
Spellbinders
Altenew
Honey Bee Stamps
The Greetery
These all use the Standard instructions for the 3D folders listed on the Base Platform A of the Universal Plate System.
Platform A + Embossing Folder + Adapter Plate D = your perfect 3D embossing folder results for Spellbinders, Altenew, Honey Bee Stamps and The Greetery.
Simon Says Stamp
Sizzix
Stampin Up
These are very thick embossing folders compared to the 4 listed above. The standard sandwich will not work with these folders. It will break your machine if you try. Use this sandwich instead
Platform A + Embossing Folder + 1 Cutting Plate C = your perfect 3D embossing folder result for Simon, Sizzix and Stampin up.
Keep in mind, the Stampin Up folder I have is very old, so the more current ones my be thinner and require swapping out the Cutting Plate C for the Adapter Plate D
These are the sandwiches I use and get perfect results. I also do not wet the paper before hand.
