#tgifc227 – embossing powder…

08.30.19….. Happy Friday everyone! This week just flew by, and it’s already time for another TGIF Challenge! This week, the focus for our Product Spotlight is embossing powder. I absolutely love using embossing powder, and I’m super excited to share this card with you! Hope you have a chance to play along with our challenge this week…and, don’t forget to check out the rest of the posts from our talented group of designers!

For this week’s card, I started with a piece of Whisper White Cardstock, and embossed it with the Tin Tile 3D Embossing Folder. Underneath, I layered another piece of Whisper White Cardstock, and then used a few Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the entire a Whisper White Thick Cardstock base. I then cut out two flowers (using a die from the To a Wild Rose Bundle) from Whisper White Cardstock, and adhered them to the panel.

I used my Versamark Pad, along with Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder and my Heat Tool, to heat-emboss each of the leaves (from the Painted Harvest stamp set) on Whisper White Cardstock. After I cut out each leaf (using one of the Stitched Shapes Dies), I added some color. I used Terracotta Tile, Seaside Spray, and Pretty Peacock (along with a wedge cut from my Stampin’ Sponge), to make each square come alive. I also used my Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker to add some speckling to each square, by “flicking” the thick end of the marker on the edge of the marker cap. I then popped up each of the squares, using a few Stampin’ Dimensionals. Tucked underneath, and around the squares, is a few strands of Whisper White Baker’s Twine, that were pulled apart.

The sentiment (from the Well Said stamp set) was also heat-embossed on Basic Black Cardstock, using my Versamark Pad, White Stampin’ Emboss Powder, and my Heat Tool. After I cut out the sentiment, I popped it up with a few Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. I then distressed the edges of all the paper on the card. For those extra little details, I sprinkled a few Basic Adhesive-Backed Sequins and 2019-2021 In Color Faceted Dots.
