Embossing Folder Focused Cards with Vanessa and Anja

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a sweet birthday card using the beautiful Cable Knit Embossing Folder. You maybe wouldn't think of choosing this one with summer images, but it creates such a wonderful texture, so I did use it for this:

I first trimmed stripes from scraps of colored cardstock and adhered these to a cardstock panel. After I had run this panel through my machine with the embossing folder, I adhered it to the card base.

Here comes a list of the products I used today:
Cable Knit Embossing Folder
Candy Shoppe stamps + dies (sweet + sentiment)
Summer Sweets stamps + dies (popsicle, purple cone)
Cruisin' Cuisine stamps + dies (orange cone)
Jewels

Now I stamped the images onto white cardstock, colored them with Copic markers, die-cut the pieces with the matching dies and adhered the elements to the card with foam tape. I stamped the "sweet" onto aqua cardstock, die-cut it with the matching die, added highlights with a white gel pen and adhered it with foam tape. Then I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock, trimmed the edges and adhered it. Finally, I added matching jewels.

Thank you for visiting today! Have a wonderful day :)

Hi everyone, Anja here with you today sharing a floral card. I love to add texture using embossing folders. This time, I stepped it up by dry embossing a Gel Plate printed background.

I started off with a white A2 card base. For my background, I applied Salvaged Patina and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Ink with a brayer to my Gelly Arts gel printing plate and put a piece of white heavyweight cardstock on top slightly rubbing across with my fingers. I really like the soft blending of these gorgeous colors. I ran it through my die-cutting machine with the Moroccan Circles embossing folder and added small white paint splatters.

Next, I stamped a couple of images from the Pink Peonies set in matching colors and cut them out with the coordinating dies. I adhered them with liquid glue as well as foam tape for a bit of dimension. The 'hello' sentiment (Beach Buddies) was stamped in VersaMark Ink onto a white cardstock strip and heat embossed in silver. Finally, I embellished my card with three Snow White Crystals around the floral cluster.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a beautiful day!
