you place your image upside down on the embossing side of the board, this way you can move the image about to find the shape that suits is best.
having found your shape you turn the board over and tape the image in place
I embossed this shape, but instead of cutting round the image, I used a ruler cutting from point to point.
with cut and dry foam and a piece of card, I inked the edges
Mounted onto my card it looks as if the image is layered.

Thanks so very much for this as was puzzled as to how this are used, Eileen! And we cant get C & C over here anyway so depend on bloggers like you to fill in the gaps..
It is really a very different yet lovely way to present a card layout.. love the colours/ design you chose as well,

That is a 'tweet' card (sorry!!) and I like the tip about cutting from point to point which has to be neater than trying to cut around a star shape. The sponged colour certainly makes it look layered.
Great tutorial Ikki and even if I'm not lucky enough to win the board I think I'm going to buy one, it looks so versatile.
