Hello stamping friends .
Yesterday afternoon at my new time of 4 pm on Friday EST I created several different cards to show you how to get more from your embossing folders . The folder I was focused on was Leaf Fall & I am delighted to tell you that it's carrying over !
This card was embossed with the Leaf Fall folder which I sponged with Starry Sky ink, & I added multi purpose glue , let it dry until clear but still sticky & then I added my gold gilding flakes . Some stunning gold & vanilla ribbon sets off this gorgeous card don't you think ?
My next cards are very simple but oh so stunning ! Simply emboss your foil & add ribbon !
Silver foil & Pool Party card stock & ribbon
Rose Gold foil , Petal Pink card stock & gold ribbon
This one is double embossed with both the clouds folder ( I finished it off after the video ) then Leaf Foil . I used the gorgeous metallic mesh ribbon on this one & paired it with Starry Sky for a different look . It looks much better IRL .
For my next card , I double embossed Basic White card stock with the Timber folder , then with Sprigs & Twigs folder , sponged on Starry Sky then added my decorative elements from both Framed Florets & Ranunculus Romance stamps & dies . I absolutely adore this card !
This card was the inspiration for the blue card above ! I was looking for some Early Espresso card stock to pair with my sponged double embossed background when I stumbled across this piece I had already die cut ! It looked so stunning I just had to use it not caring that it pretty much covered my beautiful background ! Isn't it gorgeous ?
The foliage on both cards is the beautiful white velvet together with foil - silver for the blue & copper for the brown & how gorgeous do those leaves look ?
Now it was time to add some colour in different ways ! You can view the technique in my video which I shall link below . I am stoked with how this one came out too ! I have not used my Friends Are Like Sea Shells set for some time . I love how using different techniques makes you go to your stash to explore which items you can utilise .
This sentiment was heat embossed in gold before the card mat was run through first with the brick walk folder then the Leaf Fall folder . I applied some versa mark ink to the embossed areas & then gold heat embossed . Then I added some Sahara Sand ink to the bricked areas with my brush , spritzed & dried that then continued as you'll see in the video with my Merry Merlot , Crushed Curry & GrannyApple Green inks . It's another way to add colour to your embossing if you don't wish to spend time colouring in .
Here are some more samples using the double dry embossed technique , some of which ink has been added .
