Morning Everyone, I thought I would share a little frame card with you today. It's a card I made for the launch of the wonderful 3D Embossing Folders from Crafters Companion. I love these folders, the detail, depth and dimension is super, I have said it so many times, they are such beautiful designs, so I like to show them off as simply as possible.
You will need:
Christmas Rose 3D Embossing Folder
Spectrum Noir Metallic Pencils
Black Card
Textures Embossing Folder 'Bark'
Centura Pearl Ivory Card Base 7 1/2 x 6 1/2
Pebeo Gilding Wax (A selection)
Collall Tacky Glue
3D Glue Gel
Foam Pads or Foam Tape
Step 1: Emboss your black card 5 x 7''. Colour with the metallic pencils.
Ste 2: Cut a frame 6 1/2 x 7 1/4, the inside measures 6 x 5''. Emboss this with the textures Bark folder. Bring out the texture with a selection of Gilding waxes.
Step 3: Mount the frame onto your project with either foam tape or foam pads, then mount onto your base card.
Step 4: Use some scrap card to emboss a few more flowers, colour and shape them. Position and secure them to your frame using 3D Glue gel.
Here is the finished card:
