I have been seeing a lot of magnificent cards made by dry embossing metallic cardstock and wanted to have a go at it myself. They are just as pretty in real life as featured on Instagram. Take a look!
This one started with the beaded ornament. My BFF recently retired
and is dipping her toes into the crafty world. She's been making these
"paint by numbers" bead creations and I just had to turn mine into a
card. And being the snarky friend that I am, I added the "I Made This"
to my tag's tag and mailed it to her. I'm sure she will get a big kick out of it.
While I had the embossing folder out I decided to create
another metallic card in green.
I added a huge Joy sentiment and a few pearls and called this one done.
Supplies:
Spellbinders - Loops embossing folder
Spellbinders - Swallowtail Tags die set.
Spellbinders - Christmas Memories Enclosed stamp set
Spellbinders - gold pearl stickers
Simon Says Stamp - Joy die
If you haven't tried running your metallic cardstocks through a 3D embossing folder I highly recommend you give it a whirl. It provides a lot of bang for the buck.
Thanks so much for visiting!!!
