Hello friends!
It's Juliana here today to share a
mixed media style card featuring the new Lots of Dots Embossing Folder.
To get started,
I die cut a piece of Bristol Paper using the stitched border die from the Frilly
Frames Retro Petals Die. I then embossed this using the Lots
of Dots Embossing Folder. Next, I took a rainbow of Distress Oxide inks and
applied them at a diagonal rainbow order
across the embossed paper. For this card I used Wilted Violet, Blueprint
Sketch, Mowed Lawn, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemon, Picked Raspberries and
Candied Apple. I then splattered water onto the paper using a small paint brush
and dabbed it dry with a paper towel.
To further add
to the mixed media style I then splattered a slightly darker Distress Ink onto
each section. I used Seedless Preserves, Faded Jeans, Peeled Paint, Carved
Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, and Festive Berries. To do this, I tapped the ink pad
onto my glass mat, added a bit of water and then picked up the ink and water
with a small paint brush and splattered it into the corresponding section of
color.
Once the
background was complete, I then went about adding the sentiment. I die cut the Rainbow Word Die from black cardstock 3 times and glued them together. I
then stamped the sentiments from the Over
The Rainbow Stamp Set onto white cardstock and trimmed it into small
strips.
Since you can't
have a rainbow without a little rain, I decided to add some clouds cut from
white cardstock using the Fluffy
Clouds Dies. I then finished it off with some Clear
Drops Mix #2 to represent the rain!
Thanks so much
for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed this mixed media style card featuring
the Lots
of Dots Embossing Folder.

Hi friends,
Angelica here with a set of Hello cards showcasing the Moroccan Circles Embossing Folder.
These cards are great to have on hand, and are an easy gift to make for a loved
one.
I started with
three panels of white card stock. I put each panel into the embossing folder
and ran it through my die-cut machine. I picked the back-side of the embossed
panels to add ink to.
I used ink cubes
to add color. I picked a light and a medium light ink from a few Altenew color
families. I rubbed the the ink cubes directly onto the paper, using light
pressure in a circular motion. I blended light into medium light twice on each
panel. Once I was finished, I set the panels aside to dry.
I used the Hello die to
die-cut twelve words from black card stock. I glued and stacked two words
together for each card. I made six card bases, and used my MISTI to stamp a
sentiment onto each card from the Cute As A Button stamp
set.
My last step
before assembling the cards was getting envelopes ready. I picked coordinating
colors, put the back flap of each envelope into the Moroccan Circles embossing
folder, and ran them through my die-cut machine.
I cut each panel
down to two small rectangles, and used double-sided adhesive to attach the
rectangles to the card bases. I added the words with glue to finish the
cards.
I love how these
cards turned out. And the embossed envelopes finish the set with a wonderful
subtle touch. hope I have given you new ideas on how to use embossing folders.
Thanks for stopping by!
