Ink-Blending and Embossing: Quick & Easy Card Using an Embossing Folder – A Cherry on Top Crafts

Facebook Pin Email

Hello everyone! I am so excited to be sharing my first blog post as a member of the ACOT design team! Today, I’m sharing an easy-to-make embossed card featuring some new products from Altenew!

To create this card, I first ink-blended a Black Soot and Faded Jeans Distress Oxide gradient onto my card panel. I began by blending a little Black Soot in the corner of my card panel before adding Faded Jeans. From here, I simply blended the two colours together before I achieved a smooth and vibrant gradient.

Next, I added a unique touch to my card panel by embossing it using the Charming Heliconia 3D Embossing Folder from Altenew. Using an embossing folder on your creative projects adds a beautiful and distinctive texture that really helps your project to stand out.

After embossing, I splattered my card panel with white paint before adding a sentiment using the Classic Greetings Sentiment Stamp and Die Set from Altenew. The sentiment was stamped using the Obsidian Amalgam Ink Cube from Gina K. Designs.

To finish my card, I used Gina K. Designs Connect Glue to adhere my elements to an A2 card base.

As mentioned, embossing folders are an amazing – but also quick and easy way – to add a beautiful and uniquely handmade touch to any project you create. With a wide variety of embossing folders to choose from, you can find anything from florals to geometric shapes, making them perfect for any project you can imagine!

Thank you so much for reading! I look forward to sharing my projects with all of you!

See you next time!
