Stamp, Stencil Then Emboss ~ Floral Greeting Card

 For today, I am sharing how to stamp, stencil then emboss this floral card.  It was easy and fun to make.  This is up on the Unity blog today.

Sentiment:

You are amazing.

I really love the combination of stamping, stenciling then embossing, especially with background stamps.

Helpful tips:

Here are helpful tips using the stamp, stencil then emboss steps.  To begin, prepare an A2 sized card base in white.  Then, using a stamp positioning tool like the Misti, stamp the background onto white cardstock using light ink like kraft color.  Remember to keep the paper and the stamp in place.  Next, dry the stamping and then add stenciling with ink blending over part of the background.  I used the look of paint stroke patterns.  Once dry, restamp in the same places using embossing ink like VersaMark and then heat emboss the background in gold.  Also, stamp and trim a sentiment panel.  Optional, die-cut or trim the center of the embossed panel to create a middle opening.  Then, trim that panel to fit the card and the sentiment.  Finally, layer it with flat and/or foam tape over the card base, to finish.

This is another look at this card.

Take a quick look at the fun process for making this.
