Hi everyone, I've been trying out a new to me technique with some 3D embossing folders.
Inking the folder on the concave side then placing the cardstock in to run it through my Big Shot Plus.
Need more play time with my blending and choosing colours but I'm having a lot of fun!
I spritzed the finished panel with dazzling diamonds for some shimmer.
Here's a closer look.
I inked the black diecut sentiment with versamark and clear embossed to add some shine.
The hugs stamp was clear embossed and fussycut to try and fit as best it could.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
