How to use the Sunflower 3D folder on Designer Paper; with video

August 18, 2025

The Sunflower 3D embossing folder is so popular I featured it on my team card swap this month. The theme was monochromatic.

What do you think? Can you guess what DSP I used here?

It’s the Country Home DSP seen here. Once I textured it I chose the debossed side (raised flowers are on the opposite side) to add ink to.

I first lightly rubbed Pecan Pie ink across the embossed surface. Then added a bit of Calypso Coral ink over that. The effect is quite subtle but so pretty.

This gorgeous Sunflower 3D embossing folder seen here is out of stock right now. It’s so popular this is the second time they ran out! But you can put your name on a list (on the link above) to be notified when it becomes available again.

The greeting is from the Label Me Grateful set and stamped on an Arches die-cut and layered on another die-cut. My cardstock includes Pecan Pie, Basic Beige and Early Espresso.

I chose the Full of Life designer paper for my background here; adding texture with the Waves 3D embossing folder. My colors include Pool Party, Black with Peach & Melon Mambo. I colored the large image in with Watercolor Pencils which I hadn’t used for a long time!

Save

I decided to try a different blue for the left card above – Cloud Cover. The right is Pool Party. Which do you prefer?

I have a free project sheet for you and a video tutorial as well. Click Happy Place with Full of Life DSP on this link for the project sheet you can print or download. I suggest you save these project sheets in a file on your computer for card ideas.
