Hi, this is Maria. Today is part two of the Merriest Moments Series. We’ll be using the Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder Set. I’m stepping up this card by using an embossing folder in addition to stamping. Embossing folders introduce so much dimension to your projects with a simple pass through your die cut & embossing machine.
Card 2 of 3 Instructions:
- Basic White (159276) – 8 ½ x 5 ½ in, scored and folded in half
- Basic Gray (121044) – 4 ¼ x 5 ½ in
- Shimmery White (101910) – 4 x 5 ¼ in
Cut your paper to size. Place the shimmering white paper in the Embossing Folder, and run that through your die cut machine. Gently rub the colors onto the leaves with your blending brushes for a softer look, or color using a Water Painter for a more precise color application. Use a block to stamp the sentiment onto the center of the shimmer paper. Use Stampin’Seal on the back to secure it to the Smoky Slate mat layer. se Stampin’Seal on the back tosecure it to the Basic White card base. Don’t forget to use a similar stamp on the envelope to match the card. That’s it!
