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:

Changing Leaves 1 Save

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

CHANGING LEAVES BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

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. 

Changing Leaves diagonal. Save

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. 

Changing Leaves both Save

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 Cards with Flowering Foils specialty DSP

    There's a simple way to change up a white foil accented paper into colored foil paper.  With the direct to ink technique.  'What's that?'  It's where you tap or rub the ink pad directly onto your paper.  Yes; you can do that! Look at these cards that feature the Flowering Foils specialty designer series paper.  This gorgeous paper is still in stock and it's FREE with any $50 order!

    All but the bottom right card has been 'inked' with a water based ink pad.  On the upper left is Calypso Coral, the top right is Black memento and the bottom left is Bermuda Bay and Pool Party. 

    I showed this technique on one of my latest Facebook Live videos.  I have one each Tuesday at 11 am CT here. You can see it below.
