Technique Tuesday Blog Hop - November 2023 - Dry Embossing

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing. 

Our Feature Technique for this blog is Dry Embossing. Stampin' Up! has many dry embossing folders to choose from: 20 in the annual catalog, 5 in the Sept - Dec Mini and a few more in the online exclusives. I have shared my love for music in the past and chose the Merry Melody 3 D Embossing Folder for todays dry embossing.

I decided to pair the embossing folder with cut up portions of the Gold brushed card. This paired perfectly with the music design from the Joyful 12 x 12 Specialty designer series paper. I then stamped one of the outline images from the Heartfelt Hexagon set along with a sentiment from the Hope & Peace stamp set; so many perfect sentiments for Christmas in this set. This was punched with the hexagon punch and a few dies from the Earthen Texture dies were added behind the punched sentiment to add some dimension/color.  

Look at that gold pop on this card! I made two of these so someone with a love for music is going to love receiving these cards.
