I love the look of an embossed card. Whether it is an embossed texture or an image embossed in one of the many colours avaialbe, it just shows you took that extra step in making that card special, don’t you think? Most of the time, I just emboss greetings on my cards but today I decided to step it up a bit. I cannot believe how nice this card looks. I think I’ll be doing that more often now that I have seen the results.

To make this card.

Take your card base and score at 5 1/2″ then fold and burnish with your bone folder. Using the Basic White piece for the outside of the card and an embossing folder, run it through the Cutting and Embossing machine to create the texture background. For this card I used the retired embossing folder Scripty 3D but you could use any texture you like. I then adhered it to the front of the card base and set aside.

For my DSP piece, I stamped the floral image in Versamark Ink then heat embossed it with white embossing powder. You may not see it in the picture but is has a lovely glossy look. I love that! I also stamped my greeting and heat embossed it as well. Once that was done, I adhered it to the Soft Succulent mat. Before adhering it to the card front, I wrapped the coordinating ribbon across the bottom and secured it on the back with mini glue dots. I added the bow and the sentiment to the front with glue dots as well. I then popped it all up with dimensionals before adhering it to the front of my card base.
