Okay I PROMISE I'll shift away from birthday cards soon, but I'm just on a roll! I've cleared out a TON of old cards and am refilling my rack with a purpose, because I really need to get better at mailing birthday cards.
I did something I RARELY do with this month's 3D Embossing Folder Club - I mass produced! I really did! Because these oversized embossing folders let you do two slimline card fronts at a time. I'm all for that.
All I did was simple spot ink blending with brushes on it.
However, my photo of this is one of those visible illusions. If I stare at it long enough, the dimension FLIPS and it looks indented instead of raised. And of course now that I've said that, you will be unable to see it the right way. It's like the blue black / gold white dress all over again! You're welcome! :)
The sentiment is these dies.
We are having a blog hop & giveaway today to celebrate ALL the clubs. I'm very, very selective what recurring subscriptions I have, because I'm a budget person, and I love these. My favorites are the Embossing Club, the 3D Embossing Club, Small Die, Large die and Stamp & Die. I think I told you that I destashed my embossing folders hard on a recent decluttering, so this is a good way to slowly build them back up with new themes, but honestly, the size of these make them so very versatile. For example, they are ready made journal covers.

These are so fun and a perfect size for your purse or car.
Anyway, enough about my embossing obsession.
Here are the supplies, and come back for a giveaway and more inspiration from my friends! They will be showing all sorts of things from the other clubs.

I only saw it as indented before you said anything! LOL! And I still can't see it the right way! I'm only in the Glimmer club but I may have to check out the embossing folder club. I gave away many of mine, and still don't think to use the ones I kept...maybe I need to breathe new life into my collection!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful soft colors.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip about the generous size of these embossing folders! Mass producing can be so helpful in our busy lives!
ReplyDeleteInteresting! Hadn't thought to use paint for a journal cover like this - especially an embossed cover. Thanks for a great idea! Nice to learn about a book stapler, too! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of painting on a journal cover to make something different. Using a folder to make two cards at once didn't occur to me - great thinking! Love to save time while making lots of cards! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your idea
ReplyDeleteCute cards and thanks for the video!
ReplyDeleteI love the oversized embossing folder idea! And those COLORS! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI see it indented first. A lovely card.

ReplyDeletefolder is gorgeous. That red is vibrant.
Great projects. thanks for sharing.
Pretty card and I like the embossing for journal covers.
ReplyDeleteHave never have the idea of making a journal, I'm into cardmaking more myself but I love the size of the 3d embossing folder I can get 2 card fronts from one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the video, great idea if I decided to do a journal cover or even a notebook cover in the future.
