Boho Indigo meets the Rectangular Postage punch!

July 2, 2020

The Boho Indigo product medley is beautiful! Check it out on page 9 of the annual catalog or click here.

The medley comes with a whole bunch of products all in one box including stamps, dies, beautiful designer paper in 6 X 6" size, textured card stock, die-cuts, ribbon and paper/bead flowers. The colors are Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy, Vanilla, White, Garden Green & gold.

There's even a refill option (without the stamps, dies & ribbon) but it is on back order until mid July. It includes the papers and the flowers. See that here.

I decided to use the Rectangular Postage punch for a quick, pretty card. See it here.

The colors are Misty Moonlight, Seaside Spray & White. The Misty Moonlight pieces are textured with the Meadow Moments embossing folder. The greetings are from the Fancy Phrases stamp set seen here. I used the Tailored Tag punch for the front greeting. That delicate flower on the greeting is included in the Product Medley AND the refill for it.

Measurements:

White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"

Inked Embossing Folder technique; it’s SO pretty!

June 10, 2021
I decided to play with an old favorite technique where you add ink directly onto an embossing folder 'before' you run it through the die-cutting machine. I shared how on the FB Live video here.

This first card features the Polished Pink CS & ink.

Save

I used two new products in our 2021-22 Annual Catalog; the Pretty Embossing folder and the Create with Friends stamp set seen here. That pretty die-cut label is from the Potted Succulents dies seen here.

This Pretty Embossing folder seen here is my free giveaway for online orders over $50 this month (before tax & shipping) using the host code seen below.

I made one in each of our newest In Colors; Evening Evergreen, Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Soft Succulent and the Polished Pink.

I shared a video with other techniques using the Pretty Embossing folder my FB Live here. Or click on the photo/link below.

Coloring Techniques with the Pretty Flowers Embossing folder! With video!

June 10, 2021

Have you ever added color/ink directly onto your embossing folder? It's actually fun and the results can be amazing! I shared three different techniques on my weekly FB Live Tuesday. Here's a link to it on my FB page or on YouTube here. Or scroll below to see it here.

This first card is done by coloring on your folder with markers. These are regular water-based markers; not Blends. I share tips for success on this technique in the video.

Each card features the stamp set Create with Friends seen here. I love this set! The embossing folder is called Pretty Flowers; it's my free gift for online orders over $50 in June! *see it here

Save

I chose to use Soft Succulent on both cards adding Pale Papaya on the left and Fresh Freesia on the right. Love our newest In Colors!!! The greeting layer is from the Tasteful Label dies.

Save

Next is a sponging technique. I embossed the White CS with the folder in the die-cutting machine first. Then used sponge daubers to color the White CS. I highly recommend you use pastel colors for this for the best results. It's much more forgiving!

Save

I used the Poppy dies for the greeting layer.

Save

And the last technique is to add ink directly onto the folder itself; before you run it through. Press your ink pad lightly to the side of the folder you want inked. Do this lightly to avoid getting ink in the recesses of the folder. Again; watch my video for more tips!

The pretty die-cut for the greeting is from the Potted Succulent dies seen here.
