Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Inked Embossing Folders

Hi Everybody,

This pretty A6 card is created with inks and a 3-D Embossing Folder from Altenew. It was part of one of the Create Your Life kits that I used to get 

It is a very easy technique to do and if you prefer it in a  video then be sure to let me know and I will do one straight away.

The result will be different every time you do it and of course can change drastically depending on the colours that you use.

I am very happy with this one and I think the flowers stand out really well especially with the gold edging to them.

Here is another done in more vibrant colours and added to some of the knitted card from
 Anna Marie Designs.

To thus circular card I have also added in some Mulberry flowers.

If you like to use flowers on your cards and always got them from Wild Orchid Crafts then it was a great disappointment when they stopped shipping to the UK.

But one of my regular readers has given me a kink to a new place that has the same types of flowers at much the same prices as WOC

So a great big Thank You to Ann Topp for the tip about Carroway  Cottage   

They have the most amazing range of flowers that you could need,  in all colours and sizes and types, and when I need more flowers I will definitely be giving them a try. 

They are a family run business based in Scotland and so will ship to you in the UK.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
