Simple Embossing Technique You’ll LOVE for Easy Cards

Today I have a simple embossing technique you’ll love for easy cards.  I don’t do a lot of “techniques” because they are messy, take a lot of supplies, and a lot of time–and that is NOT my style.  But, I think you are going to like my post today where I show how to ink embossing folders. This technique makes very pretty cards!

As I showed in the video, the look is completely different depending on what side of the Embossing Folder you put the ink!  Which do you like better???

Card Recipe:

  • Petal Pink:  8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″
  • Whisper White:  5 1/8″ x 3 7/8″
  • Petal Pink:  5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ (after embossing cut down to 5″ x 3 3/4″)

Here is another example where the embossing layer is Whisper White.  As with the above ones, I used the Petal Pink for the ink on the embossing folder.

The greetings on all of these cards are from the STRONG & BEAUTIFUL stamp set on page 48 of the Occasions Catalog.

I have been using these a lot lately.  It’s great for “Mother’s Day” cards, but more so, it’s great for all your girlfriends and family!  Great encouraging words!

    • Thanks! You can clean the folder by running it under water. If you are using Stampin’ Up! classic ink pads they are water based inks.
