Week 6 Challenge – Card No. 4

Uncategorized

17 Jul

Hello, Crafters.

This is the fourth card in my Using Embossing Folders Challenge. I’m really pleased how this card came out.

In the absence of knowing if this technique has a name or not, I’m calling it Split Embossing.

I prepared a Whisper White cardstock card base with a layer of Crumb Cake cardstock.

I measured the top Whisper White cardstock layer 1.5″ down on both sides, at the top and the bottom.

Then I lined one end up in the Arrows Embossing folder as far as the marks.

I placed it between two cutting mats making sure the top mat didn’t come past the top edge of the embossing folder and ran it through the Big Shot.

I repeated the process for the other end of the cardstock.

Then I put this layer, face down on my score board and lined the end of the embossing up with one of the scoring grooves and scored to the bottom.

I repeated this for the other end. This gives the front side a beautifully finished look.

I added the sentiment from the For the New Two Stamp Set.

I stamped the three flowers using the Pictogram Punches Stamp Set and punched them out with the flower punch for the Itty Bitty Accent Punch Pack.

I made the second card in the same way as previously but put some Designer Series Paper from the Adventure Bound Paper Stack (now retired) across the end of the embossing. 

I used the same DSP to layer the sentiment, using the Lots of Labels Framelits.

I stamped the sentiment from the Feel Goods Stamp Set using Crumb Cake Ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock.

I put tiny pearls at the ends of all the swirls of the writing.

I used more DSP to stamp the flowers from the Flower Shop and Petite Petals Stamp sets and punched them out with the corresponding punches.

I love this style of embossing and will be using it in my card making lessons at the end o the month!

I have just one more card to go with this challenge and will then be looking for a new challenge for next week.

Is there a subject you’d like to nominate as a challenge for me?

Please leave your suggestion in the comments box below.

Until tomorrow, happy crafting.

JanB.
