Tech 4 Stampers Academy Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to Junes Tech 4 Stampers blog hop. Wow! Here in the UK, we are having beautiful weather and I have been making the most of it. My garden is in full bloom and looking very pretty. This month’s theme is Embossing, and I would like to share with you just two of the ways you can add embossing to your project.

I will be using an embossing folder, also known as dry embossing, to add background texture and heat embossing stamp an image and sentiment.

Embossing your card

Dry and Heat Embossing with In The Moment stamp set.  Using Moody Mauve and Pebbled Path.

Create an A6 card base, measuring 10.5cm x 14.9cm, and a layer, measuring 10cm x 14.4cm, from Moody Mauve cardstock. Place your layer into your embossing folder and run through your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, using the corresponding plates. I have used the crosshatch folder from the Basics 3D Embossing Folders, these are available as part of our Online Exclusives.

Wrap a length of Pebbled Path Textured Ribbon around your layer and adhere into place on the rear. Using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, adhere your layer to your card base.

Take a piece of Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper and rub over with an Embossing Buddy, these are available as part of the Embossing Additions Tool Kit, this will rid any static and stop your embossing powder sticking where it is not wanted. Stamp your image using Versamark ink and sprinkle with white embossing powder from the Stampin’ Emboss Powders Basics. Shake off the excess and return to the pot.

Heat with a Heat Tool and watch the magic happen. I never tire of this process. Ensure all the powder is melted. Repeat the process with your sentiment, onto Pebbled Path cardstock. I have used the Charming Sentiments stamp set and dies.

Colour your image using Water Painters and Moody Mauve, Boho Blue, Pebbled Path, Early Espresso, Petal Pink, Old Olive and Pool Party ink. Allow to dry before die cutting. I used the largest frame from the Darling Details Dies, to give a different edge. Add to your card front using Stampin’ Dimensions.

Finish by adding your sentiment and several Pebbled Path 2023-2025 In Color Dots.
