Day 5 Card

Today is the last day of being card captain.  I have enjoyed sharing the cards I made for this week.  I hope you have enjoying looking at them and hopefully you learned a new technique or two.  The card for today is using the wax paper embossed folder technique.  I used the MS Cloisonne Flower stamp and a Darice embossing folder.  I stamped and embossed 2 flowers, one on velum and the other on glossy card stock.

 This is a nice spring / summer card.  It make me feel nice and warm.  I hope we will be getting some spring like weather soon!

Day 4 - Resist Folder Technique

Today's card is using the Embossing Folder Resist technique.  You using glossy card stock, wax paper and an embossing folder.  You put the wax paper on the glossy side of the cardstock and put that in the folder, wax paper up.  Run it through the big shot or similar machine.  After running it through the die machine, you iron  the wax paper.   I put it in between 2 pieces of copy paper before I ironed it.   Then I used Walnut Stain and the blending tool to color the background.  I used the MS Owl stamp on the resist background.



Below is a link to a you tube for this technique.  You can find others by searching for Embossing Folder Resist.
