Layered Florals Embossing Folder

 Hello & welcome again,

I have been playing with variations of the “blackout” technique. This technique involves dry embossing, then adding black ink to the embossed card. As well as the black ink, I have also used Pecan Pie ink (#161665) and White & Silver Embossing powders.

Firstly I added colour to the Basic White card (#159228) using ink and Blending Brushes (#153611). The inks I used are Shaded Spruce (#147088), Azure Afternoon (#161663), Crushed Curry (#147087), Real Red (#147084) and Gorgeous Grape (#147099). Next I embossed the card with the Layered Florals Embossing Folder (#162935). When I dry embossed this card I wanted to use the de-embossed side, so when I put the card into the folder I had the coloured side facing to the back of the folder.

For the first card, I wiped the Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) over the card for the blackout effect. I then decided to wipe VersaMark (#102283) over the card, then add the Clear from the Wow! Basics Embossing Powder (#165679) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). This gave a nice shine to the card. I matted the card with Shy Shamrock card (#163793) and wrapped the Shy Shamrock Bordered Ribbon (#163787) around the card. The sentiment from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set (#163490) was stamped with Shy Shamrock ink (#163808). A Christmas Labels Die (#164100) was used to cut the sentiment and then attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

For the 2nd card I used Pecan Pie ink and again Clear embossed it. The sentiment was cut with a Wild Ferns die (#162654). Bubble Bath card (#161727) was used to matt the card front and for the “banners” under the sentiment. A Nested Essentials Die (#161597) was used for the banners.

For the 3rd card I heat embossed the card with Silver from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powder (#165678). The sentiment is from the So Sincere stamp set (#162283), stamped with Crushed Curry ink (#147087) and cut with a Labelled With Love die (#163570). The Ribbon is the Silver from the Gold & Silver Trim Combo pack (#161633).

Finally, for the 4th card I used White Embossing Powder from the Basics Powders. The ribbon is a retired Gorgeous Grape ribbon. The sentiment is from the Simply Said stamp set (#163756), stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink and cut with a Christmas Labels die. The Gorgeous Grape card (#147011) was used to matt the card and for the label under the sentiment that was cut with a Something Fancy die (#160424).

The base card for all the cards is Basic White.

Inspirational Sketches

 Hi again,

This gorgeous bird is from the Inspirational Sketches stamp set (#162684).

I stamped the bird with Flirty Flamingo ink (#147052), then fussy cut it. The Basic White card front (#159228) was dry embossed with the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder (#162935) then matted it with Flirty Flamingo card (#141421).

The ribbon is Silver & White 1/2” Sheer Ribbon (#162149) and I coloured it with Flirty Flamingo ink using a Blending Brush (#153611). This was wrapped around the corner of the card. The base card is Basic White.

The sentiment from So Sincere stamp set (#162283) was stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink and cut with a Labels Aglow die (#159551). The bird & sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Flat Adhesive Backed Pearls (#160449) were the embellishments attached to the card. Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) was used to add glimmer to the bird.

Thoughtful Expressions

 Hello again friends,

This beautiful Hummingbird is from the Thoughtful Expressions stamp set (#162815).

I stamped the bird with VersaMark (#102283) onto a piece of the Holographic Trio 12”x12” Specialty Paper (#161744). I added the Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was cut with the co-ordinating die from the Thoughtful Expressions dies (#162821).

I dry embossed the Basic White card front (#159228) with the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder (#162935) and matted this with Starry Sky card (#159264).

The Starry Sky Metallic Woven Ribbon (#159198) was wrapped around the card front, then the card front was taped to the Basic White base card.

“Just For You” from the So Sincere stamp set (#162283) was stamped with Starry Sky ink (#159212), then cut with an Everyday Details die (#162864). The sentiment & hummingbird were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The silver embellishments are from the Festive Pearls (#159963).

Layered Florals Embossing Folder

Hello again friends,

Don’t you love the detail in this Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder (#162935).

I dry embossed the Basic White card front (#159228) with the embossing folder. I then coloured one flower with Stampin’ Blends. I was going to do more flowers but once I did this one decided I liked it with just the one coloured. I used Lemon Lolly (#161673), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Petal Pink (#154893) and Soft Sea Foam (#154902) Stampin’ Blends. I matted the card with Daffodil Delight card (#121680).

As I didn't have any Daffodil Delight Ribbon I coloured the Lemon Lolly from the Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack (#161635) using a dauber with Daffodil Delight ink (#161635). This was then wrapped around the card. The base card is also Basic White.

“Thinking Of You” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094), then cut with an Autumn Leaves die (#162185). The sentiment was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

I added Wink Of Stella (#141897) to the flower and the embellishments are the Iridescent Foil Gems (#162842).
