Changing Leaves Hybrid embossing folder technique; with free project sheet & video tutorial


I joined quite a few swaps featuring our newest group of Online Exclusives and this is one of the cards I made:

It features the Changing Leaves bundle seen here.  It includes a stamp & die bundle AND a coordinating hybrid embossing folder as well. 

I used two different embossing techniques on this card. If you look closely at the die-cut leaf you'll see there's ink in the recessed part of the leaf.  That was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I cut & embossed the leaves.  Please watch the video here to see how it's done. 

My colors include the new Basic Beige and Mossy Meadow with White. I also ran a piece of Basic Beige CS through the clean folder and added ink with a blending brush afterwards. 

In the two cards below you'll see that the Beige card stock looks different.  The left card was done by blending Mossy Meadow ink very lightly over the textured CS. The right card was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I textured it. Two totally different results! Again; watch the video below to see how it's done. 

For the greetings I used another new Online Exclusive stamp set called Everyday Greetings. It's a fabulous greeting set. See it here. 

The oval die-cut is from a new set of dies called Greetings of the Season dies seen here. They're paired with a stamp set but are great on their own too. 

Did you know that Online Exclusives simply mean that they're seen online and not in any printed publication? Anyone can order them! See them all here; there are tons of them!

  • Fun Fold card with two versions!


    Saturday was World Card Making Day!  Did you make time to stamp?  First; did you even know about it?  

    We had a few stamping events on my Flowerbug's Team group and Mystery Stamping was one of them.  I sent them measurements so they could prep for the card making event but they didn't have a photo of the card!  Just measurements and supplies.  Use any Designer Paper, etc…..  It was fun to see what they all made.  

    Below are the two fun fold cards I made.  

    The front of the card is cut short to reveal the Designer paper on the left (inside) of the card.  Above I used the Snowflake Splendor designer paper and the Snowflake Wishes stamp set & dies bundle.  This designer paper is on sale right now at 15% off.  See all of the papers on sale here: 

    Next is a card made with the Gilded Autumn specialty designer paper and the Beautiful Autumn stamp & punch bundle.  You can see the measurements for these cards below. 

    Here are the measurements:

    • 2 pieces of Designer Series Paper (3 1/4" x 4" plus a coordinating piece 1 3/4" X 4")
    • Coordinating card base (9" x 4 1/4" scored at 5 1/2")
    • neutral CS like White or Vanilla (2 1/2" X 3 1/2" and 3 3/4" X 3 1/4" for inside)
    • a coordinating layer of CS (2 5/8" X 3 5/8")

  • Don’t miss this fun technique; use those Designer Paper scraps!


    Do you have trouble tossing those small pieces of Designer Paper left from a project?  I sure do!  There has to be a way to use them, right?  Well you can use them easily with this technique! 

    See?  It's quite eye-catching isn't it?  I kept the cards very simple to highlight the paper.  Each one features the Celebration Tidings stamp set. The card above features the Plaid Tidings designer paper; it's on sale right now too!  

    Watch the video below to get the tips on how to create these.  You just need some 1/2" strips and a ruler.
