The Great Canadian Scrapbook Carnival

Category

Greeting from Spellbinders! We are excited to be a sponsor of the upcoming Great Canadian Scrapbook Carnivals this spring! We’re stopping by the blog today to talk Three-Dimensional Embossing Folders. 3D Embossing is an easy way to create huge impact in your projects by shaping and sculpting paper into amazing works of art. With a spritz of water and a pass through your Spellbinders Platinum machine with the Universal Plate System, you can transform cardstock, patterned paper, vellum and more into stunning textured elements that bring any project to the next level. Here at Spellbinders, we’ve curated a collection of detailed 3D Embossing Folders for all occasions. From versatile basics to intricate holiday patterns, there’s a 3D folder for every project. Today, we’ll share a few of our favorites with you. Starting with the basics, this spotty and dotty 3D embossing folder is so much fun! Puff Dotty adds a bubble-like…

I took a piece of white cardstock, die-cut a heart on the top 1/3 and then added dimension using an embossing folder.

After the purple, I dabbed on a little bit of silver stamp paint. I used Viva Decor Inka Gold, another beautiful shimmery product, to colour my die cut word. Then, I just tucked in a dictionary page with the word ‘anniversary’ under the heart-shaped opening, adhered the…
