Softly Sophisticated Embossing Folder

Wednesday’s WOW! #159 – An Ombre Background.

Add an extra addition to your next project with an Ombre background – with texture. Try this out.

Emboss your card mat with an embossing folder.

Using a Blending Brush or Brayer sponge over some ink in the same colour as your card. Starting darker towards the bottom and lighten as you work up the card. This creates a subtle variation in colour and is such a great effect.

See how it is done here.

Here’s a card showing this idea.

This one uses the Softly Sophisticated stamp set. The Embossing Folder is the Softly Sophisticated Embossing Folder.

They come as a bundle for Sale-A-Bration with your orders over $180.

Hope you can try this idea out on your next project.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

I like this Softly Sophisticated stamp set.

I like that the stamps for the flowers and leaves are separate so you can create different colours without using markers to add to the stamps. Especially being a photopolymer stamp set. They don’t work so well on those stamps.

I stamped them on scrap paper to get a feel for them first. Then I created this card with it.

The background is embossed with the Softly Sophisticated Embossing Folder. The paper is the Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper.

The stamps and folder come as a bundle for Sale-A-Bration with your qualifying orders of $180 AUD.
