Beautiful Embossed card swaps with foil accents

November 19, 2025

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:

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:

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.

This card really shows off the two embossing folders I used. On the card below I used the Dotted Circles 3D folder seen here. It's an extra large folder (6" X 8 1/2") that has very deep texture. It's Shy Shamrock with Pretty in Pink. The designer paper is the Unbounded Beauty.

Save

The card below features the Eyelet 3D folder which is quite pretty & delicate. See it here. This card is Petunia Pop with Shy Shamrock.

Do you notice the difference in the greetings? I fussy cut one to add to the In Color Glimmer paper and the other I simply trimmed the ends at an angle.

Spotlight on Nature unique Z-fold card with video & free project sheet

June 10, 2024

I shared this unique & easy fun fold card on last week's Live video.

Save

It doesn't look like a fun fold card does it? I featured it at my May Card Clubs. I love the way the detailed die is popped up on Dimensionals which shows off the die-cut pattern. There's a simply trick to stamp over the die-cut after you cut out the die shape; watch the video to learn how.

It features three new In Colors and the Spotlight on Nature bundle. The colors include Pretty in Pink, Shy Shamrock & Peach Pie. I colored in the butterfly & flowers with Pretty in Pink & Peach Pie blends. Want to know how to do this? Watch the video here or below. I love combining two colors like this!

The Spotlight on Nature bundle is out of stock right now but will be back in a few weeks. It is discounted an extra 10% in June too! See it here.

I'm calling it a Z-fold because the inside White layer is folded like a 'Z'. It connects the card front and the card base & opens like this:

More Thoughtful Journey showcase cards!

June 7, 2024

Today I'm sharing the other two cards Judith made with the Thoughtful Journey Suite. I shared three yesterday and am so proud of the fabulous projects she created!

This stunning fun fold card is incredible! I loved it so much I had to case it.

Save

I made a different version along with a video tutorial too. Click here to see it and the free project tutorial too. I am not providing measurements here in this post since they're in the link above.

Here's the front view of her card:

And here is the back view.

She used the pretty Thoughtful Wishes bundle seen here. It's on sale now – 20% off in June!

Save

I'm not surprised that the pretty Thoughtful Journey designer paper is unavailable right now. I featured it in my June card kit to go posting next week. It should be back around June 24th.

Save

Next is the last card in her bundle of gorgeousness.

Save

Do you see how she fussy cut a second layer of designer paper and another set of flowers to pop up over the first? Great technique! I love how she added attention to the greeting with a frame made from the Perennial Postage dies seen here.

Thank you sooo much for sharing your creativity with us Judith!
