Keep on reading for more tips and project ideas using this new stamp/die/stencil/embossing folder bundle!
This bundle consists of a stamp set, dies, a 3D Embossing folder, and layering stencils. The simple, pretty images are perfect for any crafting project. They are most suitable for trying out new mediums and fun techniques. I have 3 examples to showcase the versatility of this lovely bundle.
First up, this card features a wonderful way of using Artists' Gouache- Strolling Through New York.
Have you ever been tempted to color dry-embossed images? Well, you totally can with the Artists' Gouache. The paints are so easy to control and you can use regular paper such as Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock (110 lb).
Thanks to the pigment of the Gouache, you control the flow and add colors/depth easily to those dry-embossed images. The simplicity of the Mini Wild Dog Rose makes it ideal for coloring.
In addition to the dry-embossed image, I stamped and die cut the dog rose and completed the design in no time. The stamped and die-cut sentiment (Woodgrain White Cardstock) was created with One-Go Birthday Stamp & Die Bundle.
The Satin Gold Sequins really elevated this card to another level!
My second card focuses on a clean and simple background.
To showcase the leafy image, I swiped the Eucalyptus ink over the upper panel of the 3D Embossing Folder. Once dry-embossed, you are then left with this gorgeous background with white leaves showing through.
I added a few splatters from Forest Glades Metallic Shimmer Ink Spray. For the card base, I used Real Gray Cardstock.
The stamped, die-cut and colored Mini Wild Dog Roses were popped up with Instant Dimension Foam Tape.
Noticed that I stamped the sentiment “epic” on one of the leaves? How about adding shine? The die-cut leaves with Gold Mirror Cardstock are just the right touches, right?
I applied many techniques to the third card's design.
I applied the following techniques: die-cutting, stamping, ink-blending, stenciling, dry-embossing, and masking. Aren't they fun? The Layering Stencils in this bundle really made the coloring job a delight!
Wait… there's masking?
Simply use the die-cut flowers and leaves to cover the dry-embossed images with Satin Masking Tape.
Once the dry-embossed images are covered, ink-blend the background with the inks from Blue Mountains Fresh Ink Bundle.
I hope this post inspires you to try various ways of using a complete bundle like the Mini Wild Dog Rose Bundle.
It's clear that I had a blast playing with this cute crafty bundle. Thank you for stopping by!
