I bought a large roll from signwarehouse.com but I think you can get smaller quantities from the rhinestone supply places.

The plastic cutting mats are hard to cut because, well, they are made to resist cutting :)

Is this the stuff you are talking about if it is not which one is it? ...Please

Lol, Kay, bit more expensive then the magnets! Which was a great idea, by the way. I have made quite a few things with them. How does the stencil material work for embossing? Better than the magnets, crisper/ finer lines? Thanks!

The embossing is about the same, but the vinyl is easier to cut which probably translates to somewhat finer lines though I haven't tried head to head examples. Use whichever you have available or can get the cheapest in the quantities you need.
