Hello and welcome to our New at SU blog hop. This month we are sharing elevated embossing projects with you.

Embossing folders are my favourite tools in papercrafting. Why?

1. It’s quick to create texture with them
2. They are low cost
3. There are so many techniques to use with them

I used the Letterpress technique with the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder. To achieve this look, I added Lemon Lime Twist ink to the raised side (the one with the Stampin’ Up! logo), by patting my ink pad directly onto the folder. Not moving the cardstock, I re-applied the ink and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (SCEM) a couple of times.

Still with the Cardstock in place, I added Wild Wheat ink with a Blending Brush to sections of the same side. Then I ran it through the SCEM again. This was repeated until I was satisfied with the result. I went around the white space with the Garden Green Watercolour Pencil and blended it lightly with a Water Painter.

I added some Calypso Coral to the smaller flowers with a Sponge Dauber as I felt those needed a different look. The stamens of the larger flowers were accented with the Early Espresso Watercolour Pencil.

Some simple leaves form the focal point as I didn’t want to detract from the lovely embossing folder. A few splatters and a Linen Thread bow coplete this card.

I hope you have enjoyed what I have shared with you and give this technique a try. Please follow our hop through for lots more fun ideas for using your embossing folders.
