Easter Basket

Love fun little techniques that step up your projects? How about an Embossing Folder technique that is quick and simple to do that has been used on this card?

Today’s card uses the Easter Basket Bundle (166947) to create this card. It also uses a technique of adding ink to the debossed side of the folder to add color.

How do you do that? It’s simple – you’ll want to use your Classic Ink pad or a brayer to add color to the inside of your embossing folder and then run it through your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss as normal. Clean up is easy simply run water over the inside and allow it to dry.

This creates a colorful background for your project. In addition to the All in a Row Embossing Folder (166989). This card also uses a watercolor wash for the bunny to create a soft feel. Simple stamping was used for the eggs and sentiment. And of course a bit of Bubble Bath Faux Linen Ribbon (167075) adds a bit of texture to the card and a fun detail.

So what do you think? Want to try this simple technique to add color to your embossing folders? While it can be a bit messy if you’re not careful it is a lot of fun!

Cute, right? I hope you can see all the lovely texture and details this card has. First the background is dry embossed using the All in a Row Embossing Folder (166989). Then the fun and colorful Easter Joy Specialty Designer Series Paper (166939) has been placed behind a piece of Vellum 12×12 Specialty Paper (Online Exclusive 167099) to give it a softer look and so the little bunny and basket looks like it just pops off the card. The basket has been cut out of Basic Beige card stock and strip of Pastels Shimmer Specialty Paper (167198) reminding me of my childhood basket. Finally Stampin’ Blends have been used to color the images.

Cute? I think so and who wouldn’t love receiving this little Easter card?
