Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

April 29, 2024

3-D Inspiration

 Hi Everybody,

Using a 3-D embossing folders gives you a really deep impression on the card and it is lovely when inked over to bring out the detail.

This folder from Crafters Companion is called Dahlias and it is beautiful, and it inspired me to make some Sympathy Cards ... of all things.

So I thought I would have a play with it and film it at the same time and that will be added tomorrow to show you what I have done.

They all have the addition of a handmade envelope with them, and that was also filmed and has already been added to the blog.

These are all 5x7 and they have all been inked over.

The left hand card has been inked over with gold and the right hand one has had a white ink pad swiped over it. 

The middle one has been swiped in white and then had the gold added to the top.

The card shown with the folder has been swiped with a silver ink pad and they are all really pretty cards. The sentiments say "Thinking of You" or "Sending Comfort" so I suppose they could be for other occasions too.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
