Today I’m showing you how to use Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves stamp set along with the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder to create a unique background. We put ink on the embossing folder to emboss onto your cardstock.
This technique has been around for a long time. It might be messy but the results are worth it. I hope you enjoyed learning this technique. Happy Stamping!
Card Directions
- Fold card base in half on the score line, burnish with Bone Folder.
- With your Copper Clay Ink pad rub ink on the inside of the top of the embossing folder. Put open embossing folder on the Cut & Emboss Machine with top open, lay Very Vanilla Cardstock on embossing folder, carefully close the top. Run through the Cut & Emboss Machine. Remove from folder and adhere to card front.
- Pull the thread from each end of the ribbon, about a 1/3” on each side for a ravel look. Tape to middle of card front.
- Stamp larger leaf in Old Olive & Moody Mauve Ink onto Very Vanilla Cardstock. Stamp the smaller double leaf stamp in Crushed Curry (2 sets) and Olive Ink (1 set). Cut out all leaves with coordinating dies.
- Die cut the large Stylish Shape die out of Pretty Peacock Cardstock, adhere to card front with Dimensionals.
- Using the largest leaf die, cut one out of Oxidized Specialty Designer Series Paper (peacock & copper paper). Die cut the line die out of the copper piece of the paper. Glue the lines for leaf to the leaf. Adhere leaf to the pretty peacock circle.
- Cut apart the small double leaf sets. Use Glue Dots or Seal to adhere the leaves to card front putting the ends under the circle.
- Stamp the greeting in Copper Clay Ink and die cut out with die from the Autumn Leaves Dies. Add to card front with Dimensionals
- Complete the front with Adhesive-Backed Speckled Dots.
- The inside was was finished by stamping the saying in Copper Clay Ink onto Very Vanilla cardstock. Stamp the large leaf in Crushed Curry Ink. Adhere to card inside.
- For the envelope, emboss the envelope flap with the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder.
