Embossing Folders

Part of this release is a bunch of gorgeous 3D embossing folders. I used Mixed Media inks to ink up the embossing folders and added ink sprays and sentiment die cuts to finish the cards.

The detail on the Poinsettia Cluster 3D Embossing Folder is amazing. I inked up the folder with Red Cosmos Mixed Media inks. By inking up the folder, the detail can really shine through.

The sentiment is from All About Wishes die set die cut from Brushed Gold Metallic Cardstock and vellum. The sub sentiment is from Sentiment Strips and cut out with Featured Sentiments dies.

Oooh the Starry Patterns 3D Embossing Folder is really gorgeous. I inked up the folder with Glacier Caves Mixed Media inks to give an ombre look.

The sentiment is from All About Wishes die set die cut from Brushed Silver Metallic Cardstock and vellum. The sub sentiment is from Sentiment Strips and cut out with Featured Sentiments dies.

I love the repeat sentiments on the Happy Holidays 3D Embossing Folder. I inked up the folder with Green Fields Mixed Media inks to give an ombre look.

The sentiment is from All About Wishes die set die cut from Brushed Gold Metallic Cardstock and vellum. The sub sentiment is from Sentiment Strips and cut out with Featured Sentiments dies.

The Pine Forest 3D Embossing Folder boasts a tranquil image of pine trees. I paired this with the Glacier Caves Mixed Media inks for an ombre look.

To finish the winter scene, I added some splatter from Pure White and Iridescent Ink Sprays.

Enamel Dots

Altenew is releasing a set of enamel dots within this release. Enamel dots are great for adding color and texture onto your cards.

I am featuring Summer Afternoon, Red Sunset, and Rose Petal enamel dots. To show off these colors, I blended corresponding ink colors over the background through the Beach Towel Stencil.

I then used the same inks to color in flowers from the Wild and Free stamp, die and stencil set. I added the enamel dots to the center of the flowers.

The flowers are a great pairing with the sentiment stamped in Obsidian Ink.
