Embossing is Beautiful

 

Today we embossed simple card. Using the Jars of Flowers stamp set. I embossed the jar in clear embossing powder, then I embossed the flowers in silver powder. I decided to color in the flowers to bring in a little color. A lot of the time I don’t color in embossing but today it felt boring. I used light/dark highland heather, poppy parade, polished pink, light daffodil delight, dark shaded spruce, then light seaside spray on the jar for some shades. 

Embossing is a really fun way to boost up a simple card. You don’t need much to put on the cover but the embossing gives it a little something. There is so much you can do with Stampin’ Up!. Simple, very elaborate, Paper Pumpkin kits, the Kit collections in the catalog. There are also so many other techniques to learn that you can do.

This is a simple card I made with layered circle dies. The inside piece is shimmering white. The stamps are from the Amazing Silhouettes stamp sets and Blessings of Home for the sentiment. I used a brush and the ink to just brush some color onto the edges of the circles.

Start off June with Summery Colors

 Todays simple card is highlighting the Blessings of Home stamp set and its matching Flowers of Home dies. I used the old paper embossing folder which is not available but you can always substitute it for another embossing folder. The inside is shimmering white cardstock. I colored the flowers with light/dark poppy parade, light/dark shaded spruce, light/dark daffodil delight, light/dark pumpkin pie, light/dark highland heather, light/dark polished pink. 

Standard Base: 5 1/2 x 8 scored at 4 1/4

1st layer of Old olive: 4 3/8 x 5 1/4 but when you use an embossing folder the size of the paper can shrink because of the creases that the folder makes in the paper.
