#DOswts413 - Embossing Folders Inspiration Hop

Welcome to the DO Stamper Stars Blog Hop. I am a member of the DO Stamper Stars team which is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who are part of Dawn Olchefkse's leader team. Each month we participate in 2 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.

I've been meaning to try the embossing with wax paper technique for some time now and decided to give a few folders a try. When you use this technique, you get (2) samples so I used Basic White and Very Vanilla to see how each would turn out. 

1. Plug your iron in on hottest setting so it heats up
2. Cut your wax paper to size (3 x 5 in my cards)
3. Run though embossing folder. 
4. Place wax paper between 2 layers of same size or just slightly larger card stock paper. 
1. Place this sandwich on top of piece of printer paper/surface that can withstand the iron.
5. Place hot iron over it allowing the 'wax' embossing to transfer to the cardstock layers 
6. Add color with blending brushes to show the embossed images. I decided to go with a rainbow type look. which meant I used some masking paper between the different colors. 
1. This reminds of the emboss resist technique. 

You can see the two different styles of cards. I picked more muted colors for the vanilla base card and decided to stamp right onto the layers of embossed colors, adding a ribbon and embellishments to dress up the card. I ironed a few other embossed images, so you'll see some more samples of this technique in the near future!

Crafty Challenge - June Color Blog Hop

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.

Today features the 'monthly Crafty Challenge which is a Color Challenge  

With Pale Papaya and Pacific Point having retired, I replaced these colors with Petal Pink and Azure Afternoon. I decided to work with the Earthen Textures bundle to incorporate all of these colors into a card.

I love all the different ways one can create the pots from this bundle. The ideas are only limited by our creativity. I also added a layer of the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper embossed with my new favorite Exposed Brick 3D folder. What I love about challenges like this is that I would have never thought to put these colors together.

Scrapbooking Global June 2023 - Black & White photos blog hop

The Scrapbooking Global Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in a scrapbooking Blog Hop Theme, 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.

 

Today's Challenge is brought to you by Mai Chapelain. We'll be using Black & White photos along with any current Stampin' Up Product to create the layout. 

I don't take black & white photos so I wasn't sure I would be able to participate in this challenge. I looked through the photos I save from my daughter's social media and found 2 of her and her daughter in black & white so I'm using those photos.

The Motherhood Theme fit right into these photos, making the Places In The Heart stamp set a perfect pairing for this layout. I searched in my computer fonts to print 2 of my own sentiments that would match close enough to the fonts from the stamp set. The Moody Mauve and Pebble Path In Colors coordinated well with the black & white photos. I'm super excited for grandbaby #2 to arrive in August.

Layout Details

• Stamps
• Places In The Heart 
• Alphabest 
• Paper
• Earthen Elegance 12 x 12 Designers Series Paper: 12 x 12 Base Layer + 1 3/4 x 5 1/4 strip
