Embossing Folders

December 8, 2010

Hi Everyone,

I was playing with some embossing folders from Generations Crafting this past weekend. It was really fun to play with different techniques.
Today’s video is a tutorial on some techniques you can do with your embossing folders…
The Basic Grey are my favorites for the holidays….

 Here are a few cards I made using the techniques in the video

Hope you have a great day….

    Thanks for sharing. I do have a question…On the last sample with the green spray…What kind of cardstock did you use? I know you usually use PTI but on the video is almost looked liked glossy cardstock?Thanks, I was just curious.Valerie

    Great cards! I always enjoy watching all your videos. I am just curious as to whether there is much difference between Glimmer Mists from Tattered Angels and the sprays from Lindy Stamp Gang. Thanks

    Great video as usual. I have the old dinosaur red sizzix. I'd really like one of the new Cuttlebugs for Christmas. I keep thinking that they'll come out with a bigger format though (8 1/2 x 11). Thanks again, Pam
