Embossing Folder Textures
Backgrounds and Die Cuts
Embossing folders make a great textured background, but can also be used to add texture to die cuts.
This card was made with a set that included the embossing folder and matching diecut florals. To make this card:
1. Emboss the turquoise card stock background with embossing folder.
2. Cut floral pieces using die cuts. I cut some from white and some from gold card stock.
3. Place floral pieces in matching spot in embossing folder and run through machine. Doing just a few a time is easier, or they may shift. Leave some pieces flat to add interest.
4. Add ink blending and color to flower centers with inks and alcohol markers.
5. Arrange on embossed background. You can match the pieces to the raised image, or scatter them like I did.
6. Mix and match gold centers with inked floral pieces.
7. Stamp sentiment with an ombre effect.
Supplies:
Altenew Embroidered Florals set, Bold Bouquet sentiment, Fresh Dye inks, alcohol markers
Metallic gold card stock
