Beautiful Embossed card swaps with foil accents

Our Team swap theme was to use foil or heat embossing on our cards. This was a fun theme that is especially easy around the holidays.

Today I’m sharing Jonna’s stunning card in Black, Silver & White:

Save

It’s a ‘Wow’ card for sure! She textured the Basic Gray card layer with the Sunflower 3D embossing folder seen here first and then rubbed it with Versamark ink. Then she heat embossed it with Silver embossing powder. Just gorgeous!

Her measurements are as follows:
– Embossed layer 3 1/2″ square
– Black layer 3 3/4″ square, Black greeting layer 3 3/4″ X 1 1/4″
– White is 4″ X 5 1/4″, White greeting layer is 3 1/2″ X 1″

The greeting is from the Branching Out stamp set.

It’s a beautiful card Jonna!

The kits below will ship out this week so you have plenty of time to finish them by December. And they’re quick & easy too!

The Christmas Tags & More cards are easy because there isn’t any stamping. The greetings are from the gold foil ephemera pack included in the kit.

This kit to go includes a share of the festive designer paper, the ribbon, the peppermint gems, the ephemera greetings, the PDF tutorial and video too. Plus the pre-cut 10 cards that are all fun folds. All for $30 plus shipping. It’s a fabulous deal!

Don’t wait long; I have just a few left. Go here to get yours. *You will need to cut your new designer paper for the cards but my directions make that simple.

~~~

The other kit I created this month is also easy but does require stamped greetings. But there is very little prep & just a little trimming of the card bases to create these beautiful wintery cards:

Save

These cards could be winter or holiday; it’s your choice when you stamp the greetings.

This kit originated from a former Paper Pumpkin kit but I jazzed up the cards and added more to create 12 gorgeous cards. This kit includes 12 envelopes and a share of Peppermint gems plus the PDF tutorial.
I have a few left so grab yours soon. This kit is $29 and you can see it here.

**Remember to check out all of my kits to go and tutorials here at my shop; choosing more than one will save on shipping.

• Frosted Forest silhouette card – so pretty! Free project sheet too

  October 1, 2024

  ---

  I'm sharing a gorgeous wintery card that I made on last week's video. I saw a few similar cards online and knew you'd like to see how to make them. 

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  It's in Navy & White with a clean, crisp feel to it. Perfect for wintertime or the holidays.  I shared how to assemble this in the video here or scroll down to see it below.  It's a little tricky to get the pieces in place before adhering to the card base.  

  The trees die is from the Frosted Forest dies seen here.  It's part of a bundle with stamps, dies & stencils seen here.

  The greetings and greeting die-cut are from the Peaceful Season bundle seen here.  I love this bundle!

  It's hard to see the texture on the White but I used the Snowflake Sky embossing folder on it. The ribbon is our sheer Navy & Gold glittered ribbon in the Annual catalog. 

  Below is the video tutorial for this card and three more!  I share a weekly Live video each Tuesday morning on my Facebook page here. Be sure to follow me on YouTube here.

• Unique Frosted Forest bundle shown multiple ways! Free project sheet & video too

  September 30, 2024

  ---

  On last week's Live video I shared multiple ways to use the Frosted Forest bundle.  Here are two of the cards I made. 

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  I used Granny Apple Green & Shaded Spruce here. I stamped the outline of the trees in Shaded Spruce and then added color by using the coordinating stencils with ink and blending brushes. (Pecan Pie ink is used on the tree trunk).

  Here is an example of the dies with a few coordinating stamps & stencils.

  See this special stamp, dies & stencil bundle here.

  I hope you watch the video here or below to see the many ways to create with it. I share a unique way to add extra detail to the large tree. It gives an easy 'leafy' texture.

  A layered banner greeting across the bottom finished it off nicely. The birds are also included in the bundle. I used Pecan Pie to stamp them and then a blender pen to spread the ink a bit. 

  Here's the free project sheet for these two cards; click on the following link to download or print it: Download Frosted Forest 2 trees cards

  I think the combination of these two colors for these pine trees works wonderfully.
