Thank you cards.

I made two thank you cards with the Crafters Compgnon "Quirky Flowers".

For the background I used Sizzix embossing folder patchwork.

And Carabelle Studio embossing folder Unit de mesure.

I join the challenge at "Let's Squash it"

A challenge blog thats al about embossingfolders.  

 

Challenge at Let's squash it.

 

Hello, I made this card for the Let's squash it challenge.

Assignment, embossing folder, green and an insect.

This is a super fun challenge blog where every challenge revolves around the embossing folder.

I don't know about you, but I have quite a few embossing folders lying around and rarely do anything with them.

But this blog keeps encouraging me to use them.

So if you feel like working with your embossing folder, go and have a look.

The embossing folder is from Spellbinder, and the stamps Bugz set are from Lost Coast Designs.

I also used Viva Decor Inka gold on the raised parts of the embossing and a white gel pen for the veins in the wings.

I also applied some fine gold glitter with the Nuvo aqua shimmer on the wings.

This card participates in the challenge of:

Let's squash it challenge. Use any Embossing Folder that leaves some space and Bling

There is a very nice challenge blog, Let's Squash it !!!

Every month a challenge with an embossing folder in the spotlight.

Well I don't know about your embossing folders? 

But mine have been in a container for years and are hardly used.

 So I am very happy with this challenge blog.

It makes me think about using my embossing folders more often. 

And for that I thank the ladies Gial and Jo of this nice blog. 

My contribution to the challenge is this card of a tree with red glitter stones that represent apples.

Take a look at this challenge and you might even want to participate.

And use some bling. Well thats great fun, right?
I used Nellie Snellen's embossing folder, 05 Rectangle Frame. 

And the beautiful stamp of Lost Coast Designs, Prom night. 

I stamped the stamp with Versamark and black with silver glitter WOW embossing powder. 

After that I run the card trough the Sizzix machine.

Also take a look at this nice blog and you might also have a nice idea to participate in the challenge.

#119 challenge on the Lost coast designs blog. All about numbers.

                                        

The Lost Coast Designs challenge is all about numbers.

And as I have a preference for vintage and steampunk stamping, I went in that direction.

I used the lovely Steampunk bicycle lady.

This card is not so difficult to make.

So even a beginner can try out this technique.

I will help you through it.

So here we go.

What you need:

Steampunk bicycle lady.

Embossing folder with numbers on it.

A white card.

Distress oxide,

Speckled egg

Ground espresso

Broken china

Fossilized amber

Crackling campfire

Distressink (not the oxide) Walnut stain

Stazon Timber brown

Markers or pencils to color the stamp.

Now the first step is to make ink puddles with,

Speckled egg, Ground espresso, Broken china

and Fossilized amber.

Spray a little bit of water on the ink.

Now pickup the ink with the paper.

Dry the paper, but leave it a little bit damp.

When embossing with a folder it works better when the paper is not compleetly dry.

Run trough your die cutting machine.

For the next step we are going to swipe with the stamppads over the raised parts.

Spray a littlebit of water so the ink will run out a bitt.

Dry the paper and then repeat the proces again.

As last repeat it with the Broken China.

Keep doing this till you like the results.

Now stamp the steampunk bicycle lady and color her.

Before you gleu her on the card, I have sew some stitching at the top and bottem.

And added 3 hotfix bronze stars.

And glued the card on dark brown cardstock.

Hope you liked this tutorial, and have fun with stamping.

Whe, the Lost Coast Design team would love to see your makes. 

So feel free to join our numbers challenge.

There is a chance for you to win some rubberstamps.

You can join with all kind of stamp brands, 

but please read the rules first.
