so is this just 1 (one) embossing folder or are there several pieces involved to make the above card front as shown?

It is one folder that reverses to another style. I can see this breaking at the "hinged" flap in heavy use.

Mine does not have a patch on the front for engraving. There may be slight differences on these things. Better contact the seller if you can to ask if the one your specifically interested in has it.

you message them. i believe you write them during the ordering process where it asks for special directions. make sure you specify the text!!!! I said i wanted the text shown on the picture and that is not what I received. I would call or email to follow up after ordering to make you actually get what you want. honestly, this is not a very good embosser... ok for one piece of printer paper but nothing thicker. I wish I would have spent more money on a better product. good luck, i hope it works for you!

The plate inserts into the clamp and is one sided meaning one half has the raised part of the image (emboss) and the other part has the matching reverse design (deboss). I was able to use all the available surface all the way to the edges. Embossing can be on any side top or bottom but the image is fixed meaning it will be upside down or sideways on a given side depending on the design orientation.

its fine glitter. you could try for stamp embossing, but i think you would be wasting whatever glitter you use.

It was not a set of 2 when I purchased it. The one that I received was the one with the bird on the front, and I do not recall a design option. The other image might be of the back? I do not currently have my binder with me.

When I got my eBosser I got the two thick white plates and two thinner plates, these are called A, B, C and D. Then there was a rubber pad and a magnetic plate for the thin die cuts. As I understand it, this is the package you will always get with the machine. I also got 3 or 4 embossing folders because my set was called a "bundle" ( I believe). Or these are available online also separately. I sure have gotten a lot of use out of my eBosser. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it! It is my favorite item for card making. Being able to cut out 4 flowers, different sizes, different papers (simply cut paper to size first and place them all on the magentic sheetz) is wonderful. They also say to get an extra A plate, which I did. I haven't used it yet and I have had my machine since April 2013. Mine is cut up, and curved slightly, but it still works and I will continue to use it until it cracks apart. That's what I did with my Cuttlbug plate. I have friends who have many of the larger embosser machines, and none compare to this one! I made over 200 cards in two weeks before Christmas and many of them have die cut or embossed items on them that I did on my eBosser.

I don't own embossing folders yet, but a scrapping friend does, and it works great!! She has one for dies, one for embossing folders.

I don't know. I gave it as a gift. I believe there are 25 cards; 50 designs all together (printed double sided).

We put 1 5x7 card in plus the matching enevelop. Looked real professional. I do not think 2 cards would fit. The flap with the sticky seal keeps it looking like a major card shop put it up. Maybe 2 would fit.?...we purchased this type for marketing one card at a time. We thought the price was reasonable too...order big enough for free shipping.

Yes, if you look at my review I list all of the embossing folder brands that I've successfully used with it and how many shims that you need to accommodate those brands.

The black plate is used for embossing. Layer from the bottom up...Multipurpose platform with number 2 shim flipped back. Next layer clear cutting pad, metal die with cutting edges facing up, card stock is next. Add silicone pad and lastly the black Impression Pad. Good luck!

A standard A2 card size is 4.25 x 5.5", which is half of a regular 8.5 x 11" sheet of paper. Cut the sheet of cardstock in half, either vertically or horizontally, then fold that piece in half. This gives you your card base (front and back). From there you can embellish the card front with die cuts or whatever design element you choose. Before adding your embellishments, you could cut a cardstock rectangle slightly smaller than the card front, in a complimentary color, to adhere to the card front to add color and make a base for your other embellishments. This is called matting.

It's very simple to crank the handle. I don't think you will notice any difference whether you are embossing a border or a full plate. You should only be doing one piece of card stock at time so there will be little to no resistance.

Yes, it is compatibility, but not exactly. Only the backing of 6 optional cards will look different from the original game. You can buy card sleeves for your cards that costs like $1 or $2 and that would solve the problem. But if you don't care about the back of the cards, then it won't matter at all.

If what you mean by "just a front/back" you mean that the card is just folded over once to create a front "cover" opening up to the message inside. It is not one of those cards with several fold overs. If you take a piece of paper and fold it in half, that is what you have in this card.

you order the embosser, then a rep contacts you via email for your information. it was not entirely clear which style you were choosing, so you should be very explicit. i had an issue with my fonts not being quite straight/linear, and the company replaced my embosser plate quite promptly.
