Hi Every body,Over on my YouTube channel today you will find the latest video from me and this one shows you how to use your die cuts as stencils with some embossing paste
The card to the right is the one I go on and complete in the video and add in the lovely Wild Orchid Crafts flowers around the oval shape
I love to make cards like these and I enjoy adding in all the finery to make it truly feminine with ribbons and pearls
I bought the embossing paste from the Craft show a few weeks ago but you can buy it in most craft shops or even on line if you don't have shops close by
It was not expensive and a little goes a long way.
I also made a second background but did not complete the full card so I thought I would show it to you here so that you can see how it looks.
I used Distress Inks to colour the paste and it is really bright and shiny
I have wrapped white ribbon around the layers and then added my water colored topper onto a Scalloped Oval from Spellbinders
I like both of these cards but they are for completely different generations.
I had fun making them and I hope you like the results.

hi Christina, this looks like a fun project. Is the embossing paste the same as "Dala acrylic texture paste"?

Hi Christina a lovely video tutorial love the embossing paste and the finished card is beautiful. I love the flowers and ribbons, and the pearls.
ReplyDeleteKind regards. Anne Owens.
An awesome video and a great technique. Both cards are so pretty! I love embossing paste too. It's fun to use and your ideas for using die cuts with embossing paste create beautiful texture. Adding glitter to the wet embossing paste really adds more texture and dimension. Great job!

ReplyDeleteGood Morning Christina :) You've been a very busy girl. Just saw the above card video. Simply GORGEOUS! And viewed the new Inspiration cards video the other day. All BEAUTIFUL CARDS! I purchased that molding paste oh.... I don't know... more than a year ago and have yet to use it. I must give it a go. Thank you so much for sharing. Enjoy a lovely crafting day. Big Hugs.
ReplyDeleteJust to say Hi and nice to know you are doing so wonderfully well.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the Youtube video - your cards both look smashing!
ReplyDeleteJust seen the video and left a comment - will be trying out this ASAP Thanks for yet another idea xxx
ReplyDeleteBoth cards turned out fantastic....thanks for video....tfs
ReplyDeletewell done Christina
Hi,Christina,
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful cards! I can't wait to watch the video to see you play with the paste. I've not tried it yet...not too sure why. I watched some YouTube videos on making your own, one method was using acrylic caulking. I think maybe I'll try with that first to see if I can do it right...then I'll treat myself to the 'real deal' :).

Love both cards. Watched your video and enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteThanks
Lovely cards! I really like the floral one. I'm going to buy some of these wonderful flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts - there's no way I'd be able to make anything like these and they'd probably take forever even if I could. Thank you for filming all these brilliant videos.
