Embossing Folder Focused Cards with Leanne and Eloise

Hello everyone, Leanne here! Have you started decorating for the holidays yet? I just love the Farmhouse style of decorating especially for Christmas. It was this decorating trend that inspired my card today. Most of the Farmhouse Christmas decor ideas I've seen include buffalo plaid, so for my card I created a green and black plaid background using the Buffalo Plaid Embossing Folder

To achieve the green and black plaid, I started with green card stock and then I used Onyx Black VersaFine to ink up the embossing folder before running it through my die cut machine. I added the embossed plaid panel to an A2 sized card base. I die cut one of the Fancy Frames Rectangles to place in the center of the plaid background.

The Farmhouse decorating style is known for it's simplicity so I followed suit and kept this card design fairly clean and simple. I die cut the "Merry Christmas", using the Christmas Garland Frame Dies, from black glitter card stock and adhered to the frame at an angle. I then used the Layered Poinsettia dies to create a single flower to add just below the greeting. For a little bit of embellishment, I added a few clear sequins to finish off the card.

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I’ll be using the Woodgrain Embossing Folder along with Merry Mice to create a Christmas card.

I started off with stamping out my images and colouring them in with Copic Markers. I cut them out and then added white details using a gel pen.

(Copic Markers Used: B0000, B000 / YG03, YG23, YG25, YG17 / R000, R00 / R32, R35, R37, R39 / YR20, YR21, YR23, YR24 / W00, W0, W1, W3 / E50, E51, E53, E55 / E30, E31, E34, E35 / RV91, RV93, RV95, RV99 / RV63, RV66, RV69, R89 / 0)

I then took a piece of watercolour cardstock and ran that through my die cutting machine with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder. I then water-coloured a pink/purple circle into the centre.

Lastly, I adhered my images into place and white heat embossed the ‘Have A Mice Christmas’ sentiment onto a thin strip of black cardstock and adhered that on too.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I’ll see you all next week.
