Here is a quick tutorial on how to use the framelits to dry emboss cardstock. This is what works on my BigShot, but I know all BigShots have different pressures so you may need to adjust the sandwich to fit your machine.
1. Open tab 2 on the multipurpose platform, see photo below.
2. Put a clear cutting plate on the platform.
3. Put a silicone mat on the cutting plate.
4. Put your cardstock on the silicone mat. (Sorry for the blurry pic!)
5. Put the framelit(s) ontop of the cardstock, with cutting side up (away from cardstock).
5. Put the framelit(s) ontop of the cardstock, with cutting side up (away from cardstock).
6. Put a cutting plate ontop of the framelit.
7. Run it all through your BigShot and your cardstock should be embossed.
