Add Color To Embossing Folders

January 9, 2021 by Heather Holbrook

Add Color To Embossing Folders

Theresa is sharing two different ways to add color to paper with embossing folders. The first technique is ink blending on the cardstock in an ombre’ pattern and then embossing, the second is to add ink directly to one side of the folder and then emboss to add color to the background but not to the raised sections. Both techniques give beautiful colorful dimensional looks.

Visit the Lost in Paper blog for all the details.
