A Beautifully Embossed Card

Today I’m featuring a gorgeous new embossing folder found in the January-April Mini Catalog. The Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder is meant to add texture to your project, and this one is so pretty, it can stand alone on a very simple card. Take a look:

I started with a Very Vanilla card base of 8 1/2″ by 5 1/2″, scored and folded at 4 1/4″. I cut a panel of the Meandering Meadows DSP to 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ and ran it through my cut and emboss machine with the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder, then adhered to the front of the card. The effect is stunning. These papers are so beautiful, and this time I just used the back of one of the beautiful scenes. Aren’t these pretty?

I then cut a circle in Very Vanilla cardstock from the Deckled Circles Dies, and stamped a sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set. If you don’t have this set, you need it – it has such beautiful sayings for all kinds of occasions:

Before adhering, I added some tape to the back and folded some Baker’s Twine to make loops. I popped the circle onto the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals, and finished off with some embellishments to add bling. Done!

The simple elegance of this card makes it appropriate for many occasions, including sympathy, thinking of you, or a feminine birthday, even a wedding! All the products used are found at the bottom of this post. Just click on one to start shopping with me.
