Yana, love this vid. I always come back to it, as a refresher course! Thanks again!

Why the heck haven’t I ever thought of this before??? Genius, thank you

Another option would be to lightly sand over the raised embossing instead of inking over it, and the final look would also depend on the type of paper used. I was gifted a paper pack of 'metallic' paper from I believe it was A.C. Moore at the time but might also have been Michael's, in a 'darker' tone that embosses beautifully and on a whim i tried lightly sanding it. Since the paper has a slight sheen to it (a 'metallic' sheen), sanding it just took away some of that sheen and really helped the embossed image to just 'pop'. The paper I used has the same color in the core, but I imagine it would look good if it was a white core as well. Thanks for sharing your idea Yana... I can't wait to try this way too!

Never thought of stamping the sentiment directly on the card stock when embossing and it looks amazing. Thank you for another great idea!

Glad you like it! I didn't want to cover any part of the embossed design with a sentiment panel, so I had to try this idea instead ❤

I love the sea glass cardstock: it’s a sophisticated weight & a gentle hue. A friend of mine sent me over to your channel & was concerned about the “exact same” die cut machine so I explained you meant the same brand but a *larger* sized machine. She also mentioned that you receive some small compensation “at no cost to us” & I reassured her again saying that you may have been a little cheeky because naturally any compensation is not going to be a “cost to us.” She’s an older lady who does read the ‘more’ menu carefully! I LOVE your creativity & how you let the quality card stock & embossing speak for itself without trying to do too much. ❤🇦🇺🌹

Hi Yana, these cards are simple but elegant. The impressions are enough to make the cards feel special. Thank you for the great tutorial. I hope you and your family are safe and are doing as well as possible. Sending love from Connecticut.🌷🌻🌷

This technique is so beautiful. I am making these today. Lovely. Thank you, Yana!

Hi Crafty. How’s things going with you?

I'll be giving this a try. I find I have better luck inking raised embossed areas using a brayer than anything else.

@Yana.Smakula

3 жыл бұрын

Yes, brayer does give much smoother results.

LOVELY cards! I would love to try the stamp cleaner you mentioned in the video, do you have a link to it?

I have several brands of 3-D embossing folders, and one of the things that I discovered (when I first started using them) is pick a design that has a lot of blank space around it, for example, a rose in the center with vines extending outward. That really makes the 3-D pop off the card. I have a couple of all over 3-D backgrounds, but I don’t like them as much because there is no open space to stamp or put a sentiment. I don’t like covering over the beautiful 3-D design with my sentiments. This idea is great and I plan to try it, and it may make my 3-D overall embossed backgrounds look better. The gear design on silver cardstock is fabulous for men’s cards!

Thanks for sharing this technique. I have one quick question, could you heat emboss the sentiment first before dry embossing the background? I'm afraid I will smear the ink when placing the mat into the embossing folder.

I like this video, I like to no if u can embossing on vinyl I have a DesignNCut machine have not used it Yet.

They are gorgeous & elegant looking cards. Brilliant idea to stamp before the embossing. You said it doesn’t work with white card stock, but couldn’t you use the white and use a pale colored ink like fog gray or another ink you’d normally use for no line coloring? I don’t have any of the 3D embossing folders to try it out. But I think it would produce a very pretty card too. I can also see using this technique for sympathy cards - elegant without all the fussiness. Thank you so much for sharing this technique!

I love these 3D folders. I have a question. Why did you heat emboss the greeting? Does this have to be done if I plan on using white cardstock.

Could you heat emboss the sentiment beforehand? I worry it might crack when I use the folder. Would the embossing be better if I spritz the paper first? THANK you

I can't find the ultra clean cleaning solution. I also didn't find it in your list of supplies. Where can I puchase it? Thanks 😊

Hello, I want to ask if I can use it for embossing a leather for journal cover? Thank you 😊

Your cards are absolutely gorgeous! 💎💫💙 What weight card stock did you use? Would 80 pound weight be heavy enough or do you need 100 or 110 pound weight? Thanks, Yana!

Thank you! I would say the 100 and 110 would work better, but you can also try the 80, it might hold up on some designs.

Love this! Hadn’t thought of doing it this way-you’re brilliant! Does anyone know what the “sequins without holes” are called and where can I find them. I dislike seeing glue ooze through then I need to find another smaller one to cover the hole. Many sequins are misshaped so I’ve started a gem/jewels collection while my sequins don’t get used! TFS
