Embossing Folders

Wednesday, December 8, 2010 - 43 comments
Hi Everyone,

I was playing with some embossing folders from Generations Crafting this past weekend. It was really fun to play with different techniques.
Today's video is a tutorial on some techniques you can do with your embossing folders...
The Basic Grey are my favorites for the holidays....

 Here are a few cards I made using the techniques in the video




Hope you have a great day....

    I love this idea. I never thought of using two folders on one card.
    Super cute
    Thanks for sharing

    Thanks for sharing. I do have a question...On the last sample with the green spray...What kind of cardstock did you use? I know you usually use PTI but on the video is almost looked liked glossy cardstock?
    Thanks, I was just curious.

    Great cards! I always enjoy watching all your videos. I am just curious as to whether there is much difference between Glimmer Mists from Tattered Angels and the sprays from Lindy Stamp Gang. Thanks

    Great video as usual. I have the old dinosaur red sizzix. I'd really like one of the new Cuttlebugs for Christmas. I keep thinking that they'll come out with a bigger format though (8 1/2 x 11). Thanks again, Pam

    Thanks for the enabling! I went to Generations Crafting and bought myself an early Christmas present - 4 sets of embossing folders, 2 Hero Arts stamps, and the last Jovial Collection they had! Merry Christmas to me and to you!
