Crafter's Companion - Gemini Accessories - Craft Supplies Rubber Embossing Mat 9 x 12.5 Inches

The Crafter's Companion Gemini Accessories Rubber Embossing Mat has received mixed reviews from customers. Some users appreciate that the clear plate can now be used as a purple base plate, providing more versatility for their crafting projects. Others were disappointed in the quality of the product, mentioning that the metal is thin and can arrive dented due to poor packaging. Despite some complaints about the product and packaging, many customers found that the embossing mat served its purpose well with the Gemini machine, making it a worthwhile purchase for those in need of replacement plates. However, there were concerns raised about the inConsistency between the product images and what was received, such as receiving an older black version of the mat instead of the newer purple one that was pictured. Overall, while the Crafter's Companion Gemini Accessories Rubber Embossing Mat may have some drawbacks, it can still be a valuable addition to a crafter's toolkit, especially for those using the Gemini machine. **
