Using an Embossing Folder 3 Ways

June 14, 2022 by Heather Holbrook

Using an Embossing Folder 3 Ways

Embossing folders are a great way to add pattern and texture to your card backgrounds, place your cardstock inside, run it through your die cutting machine and… instant design! Annie has a a few terrific ways to get even more from embossing folders with 3 different techniques. One is adding color with ink to the folder that transfers to the cardstock, the other is embossing on colored cardstock and lastly partial embossing to leave a flat area in the pattern for a sentiment or stamped images.

Visit the Spellbinders blog to check out her tips.
