The Spellbinders Loops Embossing Folder (SES-029) is a versatile background builder from the Be Bold Collection. Unlike standard A2 folders, this features a larger 8.5" x 5.5" format, making it compatible with a wide range of card sizes including A2, 5" x 7", and even Slimline projects. The design features a continuous, loosely woven loop pattern that adds a modern, tactile texture to your paper crafts. Key Features: Universal Format: The 8.5" length is smart for Slimline cards (3.5" x 8.5"), while the 5.5" width covers a standard A2 or 5" x 7" landscape card perfectly. You aren't limited to a single card size with this folder. Be Bold Aesthetic: Part of the Be Bold Collection, the loops are thick and well-defined, providing a high-impact texture that stands out even when used behind busy focal points. Letterpress Capability: This folder is perfect for experimental crafters. Pro Tip: Apply ink directly to the raised "loop" side of the folder before running it through your machine to create a custom "inked loop" pattern in one pass. Standard Single-Sided Depth: It produces a consistent, crisp impression. It is suited for ink-dragging or sanding techniques to highlight the interlaced design. Platinum Machine Sandwich: For a perfectly defined loop pattern in a Spellbinders Platinum or Platinum 6 machine, use this sandwich: Platform (A) Embossing Folder (with cardstock inside) Two Cutting Plates (B) (Note: This is a standard folder, not a 3D folder, so it does not require a 3D plate).
