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.

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.
