Inked Embossing Folder technique; it’s SO pretty!


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.  

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.

I cannot stop playing with these fabulous new In Colors.  They are my absolute favorite grouping for many years!  And that ribbon!!! See the entire new 2021-23 In color line here. 

Measurements:

  • White card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
  • Evening Evergreen CS 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"

*Below is the video to see how to do this and get my tips on being successful.

  • Peaceful Moments bundle and a WOW card!


    Jonna B made this gorgeous card for our last Flowerbug's Team card swap. She chose to use the Peaceful Moments bundle along with the Peaceful Poppies designer series paper.  Isn't it pretty?

    Aren't her flowers gorgeous?  The flowers and leaves are die-cut with both card stock AND the Perennial Essence vellum card stock.  You can see this pretty colored vellum here or on page 169 of your annual catalog. 

    • Her colors are Calypso Coral, Black, Granny Apple Green and Poppy Parade.
    • The White CS is embossed with the Coastal Weave embossing folder (my free product of the month for online orders over $65 – details below)
    • Clear Rhinestones for bling

  • Peaceful Moments in pastel colors


    Yesterday I shared a bright and colorful card featuring the Peaceful Moments bundle.  Today I have a soft and pastel card; totally different in colors and style but using the same bundle.

    Candace B made this one for our Flowerbug's Team swap.  She chose to use Blushing Bride with Soft Sea Foam, White and Old Olive.  Just gorgeous in a totally different way. 

    • White card base is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Blushing Bride is 5 3/8" X 4 1/8" 
    • Soft Sea Foam is 5" X 3 3/4"

    She sponged the large petals with Blushing Bride.  I just love that little bud at the top of the leaves.  It's one of the dies in the Poppy Moments set.  You can see the bundle here.

  • Witty-Cisms Fun-Fold card


    The Witty-Cisms stamp set is a great all occasions set with fun images and cute greetings to match.  See it here. I created this cute card for a recent online card swap.

    It's a fun fold card with a double opening.  The Real Red flap is scored and the scored edge is adhered under the inside White layer.  The Granny Apple Green main card is standard size but 1" is cut off the right edge to reveal the White inside.  The new Coastal Weave embossing folder was used on the front.  This embossing folder is the one I'm giving to all online orders over $65 in January.  

    Sometimes with this type of fold I add the designer paper to the inside right edge so it shows from the front. This time I added it to the very front along with a stitched scalloped edge piece die-cut with the Stitched Be Mine dies seen here.  

    Here are the measurements:

    • Granny Apple Green main card 7 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  
    • White inside 4" X 5 1/4"
    • Real Red 4" X 2 1/2"
    • Black 2 1/4" X 3 1/4"
    • 1" X 5 1/2" Granny Apple Green gingham DSP; *from the Brights 6 X 6" DSP pack seen here. 

    And more details: 

    • I added a butterfly die-cut from the upcoming Nature's Thoughts dies.  They'll be available in February in the Coordination Product Release.
    • I stamped the main image three times; once on the White punch and again on Real Red for the strawberry and again on scraps of Green. These are cut out and popped up on the main image.
    • White label is the new Label Me Lovely punch seen here.  I love this new punch!  A 1 3/4" circle punch fits inside it for layering. And oval shapes do as well! 

    You can find these items in my online store here.
