Hello Friends!
Woohoo!! It’s
time for the new Shining the Light ODBDSLC260 “Double Embossing (Heat and Dry) ” Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs!
Heat embossing was one of the first techniques that I discovered when I started stamping sixteen years ago and I still think it is a very easy way to add elegance to a card.
I decided to use the brand new Elegant Embellishments clear stamp set (with the coordinating Elegant Embellishments dies) along with the Vintage Flourish Patterns Die for the dry embossed background.
To
create this card:
Stamp Sets- Elegant
Embellishments, Dies- Vintage
Flourish Patterns Dies, Elegant Embellishments Dies, Vintage Label Dies, Christmas Collection 2015 6x6 |
Emboss
a piece of White cardstock using the Vintage Flourish Patterns Die (I love the
fact that these dies can be used to cut, emboss or just emboss) and trim the
panel.
Cut
a piece of the Christmas Collection 2015 6x6 Paper using the Vintage Labels Die
and adhere to the center of the white embossed panel.
Ink
the Elegant Embellishments stamps using Versamark™ ink, stamp onto white
cardstock and heat emboss with Gold Embossing Powder.
Another view- it is difficult to see the two tone gold/silver embossing on the upper left ornament |
Add
the 5/8” Gold Satin Ribbon bow to the corner and mount the entire panel onto a
piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock.
Adhere
the entire panel to the white card base and add the Gold Cord bows to the
ornaments along with the Pearls to finish off the card.
I
am so thrilled to be designing alongside the talented ODBD Design Team and hope
you will check out all of my DT sisters:
