Get More From Cable Knit Dynamic Embossing Folder

20160912_155350_resized

Aren't these unique?! I LOVE THE CABLE KNIT DYNAMIC EMBOSSING FOLDER #143537 - $10 from STAMPIN' UP!

These colors are Real Red and Emerald Envy.

Cable Knit $10

20160912_143446_resized

To use this DYNAMIC Embossing Folder, SPRITZ your card stock with water before running thru the Big Shot to soften the paper and get DEEPER TEXTURE! Use only the TOP CUTTING PLATE - NOT two cutting plates because this folder is THICK!

20160912_143707_resized

Cut the embossed card stock in strips between the cable designs.

20160912_144900_resized

Start in the center and attach the cable strips to the front of a base card. I LOVE Tombow Liquid Glue because it bonds well in my humid climate.

20160912_144939_resized

Open the card and trim off any excess cable.

20160912_155606_resized

 A cheery, COZY Christmas Card!!

20160912_155538_resized

Extra strips created this festive frame!

Totally Trees Panel Cards

Totally Trees

This is "PANEL CARD" WEEK!

I'm beginning with this CUTE set: Totally Trees. I have two VERY different creations.

20160906_100702_resized

Hey NORTHERN friends, this one is for you! I LOVE the Cable Knit DYNAMIC Embossing Folder #143537 !! Remember to lightly spritz your card stock with water before running it thru the Big Shot so it's flexible! This card says CHILLY AUTUMN, for sure!!

20160906_100640_resized

This design is for my SOUTHERN friends and uses the SAME stamp set, card fold and layout, but looks totally different! The photopolymer allowed me to bend the image and create three different angles on the palm trees!

How to fold a Panel Card

I've been making LOTS of these easy Panel Cards and YOU can, too!!

This fold lays completely flat and fits in an A2 envelope.

See how easy it is! Just score at 2" and 3-1/8" from both ends of a 8-1/2" X 5-1/2" base card!! Fold the center outward and cease well.

20160801_161123_resized

 All three of these cards are made with the Fresh Fruit Stamp Set #141770 and coordinating Fruit Stand Designer Series Paper #141660!

Fresh Fruit $27

Totally Trees

20160902_154314_resized

It's LABOR DAY in the USA! Goodbye summer - Hello autumn! Totally Trees Stamp Set from the NEW 2016 Holiday Catalog has lots of tree shapes to create amazing Fall & Christmas greetings!!

20160902_154152_resized

One of the great assets of Photopolymer stamp images is FLEXIBILITY! The red arrow show the image as it was created. I simply curved the image as I mounted it on the block to create a "HILL."

20160902_154335_resized

I also slightly curved the "THANK YOU" to repeat the curve of the Thoughtful Banners sentiment frame. TRY IT!
