Learn to use the Changing Leaves Hybrid 3D Embossing Folder for the Crafty Collaborations Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop


Changing-Leaves-Stampin-Up

Hello and welcome to my blog! Today I'm hopping with a talented group of demonstrators and the Crafty Collaborations Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop. Our theme this month is Autumn/Fall. My card features the awesome Changing Leaves Hybrid 3D Embossing Folder and bundle. Let's take a look at some features of the card, then you can download a free tutorial with all the measurements and instructions. I also have a link to my YouTube video showing the construction of this card.

Wild Wheat and Berry Burst cardstock are the featured colors of this card. Wild Wheat ink, I have found, works beautifully with gold foil. You get the look of gold embossing powder without the embossing, just by stamping!

From this angle you can see this card has a different fold in that I cut off 2 1/8" off the front flap to make my fold. Countryside Corners dies were used to make the Berry Burst section and the inside piece.

Here I used a variety of papers, Berry Burst Glimmer Paper and Gold Foil, to add some texture. Check out the beautiful design the embossing folder makes. All the leaves and sprigs were cut with dies from the Changing Leaves Bundle.

Envelopes are also included. As per Stampin' Up!'s policy, I can't include any stamped images.

The cost of the kits is $50 (this includes shipping) or free with a $50 order. Also, if you would like to receive the 6 tutorials for $15, click on the Contact Me at the bottom of the post and indicate in the box that asks, "What can we help you with?" that you want the Thoughtful Journey Card Kits or tutorials.
