Trees

I won this embossing folder (Darice) at a stamp camp and had to come home and play with it. I tried inking the folder for a letter press look but it turned out messy so I went with plain embossing. I did try misting the paper with water first because for some reason this folder seems to shrink up the paper at the bottom of the tree. The hardest part of the card was trying to trim up the embossed panel to make it a straight rectangle. I had fun "stickling" the ornaments. I sprayed the card fronts with Radiant Rain shimmer mist. I think my fave is the plain tree on the far right. TFL!

That's a beautiful tree. I have a zillion embossing folders, and now I want this one. About the process, try putting a piece of wax paper or printer paper in with the cardstock and see if that helps the problem you had with embossing the tree. TFS. Daria

Such a fun embossing folder, and I love how you decorated it.

My favorite is the same as yours and I also have run a damp paper towel over paper before embossing and like that effect.
