Anyone used it?

Ive seen some finished results using it and it looks FAB, just not sure if i would actually get the use out of it?!

Come on - spill!!!

Ye me
Have a look on the gallery I did one as a thank you to the Reverend morbid I know but I have used it for more cheery occasions. I realy like it I've got the butterfly & Fan one don't know whether I like it or not at the moment

I've used it for christening it's brilliant for wedding, new baby I wish I'd taken photo.

Tip I use a bar of soap rub in over the card it makes the embossing pen more slidy oh ye you need a big knob embossing pen
You can'nt see very well but I've used on of the there other embossing plates on the wedding card the one with the glass and bottle look on the left hand side were the stars are going down the page

I did a post on this a few months back JARM but decided against it. For every one nice card I see, there's ten nasty twee ones about.

PMSL PC, so true!!

I have one, dont use it as much as I thought I would. only tend to use for wedding and special occasions.

I have made a few Bookatrix cards but am still learning. I made one for my mum for Mother's Day and she adored it. I do think it is one of those things you just love or hate though. I know a few people just don't see the point of them.
