Stampin' Up! Instagram Tip - Embossing Onto Embossing Paste



Hey peaches, I'm here with some more awesome tips that are shared each Tuesday on Stampin' Up!'s Instagram page. So here it is: another great way to get extra texture is to emboss onto your Embossing Paste. All you must do is spread a little Embossing Paste onto your cardstock and allow it to dry fully.


Then take any die with a fun pattern and place it over the pasted area. 


Then just emboss as would normally do. Remove any residual paste off the die immediately. You can even add a little sponging for more color. 


The results are quite unique and just add that extra interest to your projects. 

 Here's a close-up of the final product:

Sailing Away - Stampin' Up Artisan Blog Hop

Come Sail Away

 Well, hello peaches! Welcome to the Sailing Away Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team Blog Hop! Each month our very talented and creative team of designers will be bringing you inspiration, so get comfortable and have a ton of fun hopping along with us. You may have just arrived from the wonderfully talented Kaylee Van Es' Blog. Just over the moon about what she has created!


Today, we will be showcasing the Sailing Home Bundle. These products come from the Come Sail Away Suite, in the brand new Annual Catalog, and all coordinate beautifully with cool little trinkets, nautical themed DSP (Designer Series Paper), and gorgeous thick baker's twine-everything you need for that masculine or ocean themed card! One of the things that I love about this set is that it is ocean themed. I'm a sucker for those types of sets. The images and fun font just make this such a fun set to stamp with.There are 12 stamps and 12 dies. Additionally, there are some fun dies that create embossed designs when cut out. There are so many possibilities!

   SAILING HOME BUNDLE

 For my card today, I wanted to have a layer that had a "wave" look to it. There is a new wave embossing folder in the new catalog, but I wasn't able to get it yet so I had to get creative. I used one of the laser cut cards from the Come Sail Away Memories & More Card Pack. It's supper easy to do and creates a unique, textured look. 

Here's how you do it: 
  1. First, take a piece of Balmy Blue Cardstock (or any color) and place the "wave" looking laser cut card (pictured above) over top of it..
  2. Next, sandwich it in your die cutting machine just as you would to die cut, NOT EMBOSS. You can add additional shims for more added depth and texture.
  3. Then use a Stamping Sponge and your Balmy Blue Ink to ink onto your embossed cardstock to really accent the embossing.
Here's a closeup of the effect:

Here's one more close-up of all of the details:

These products were so fun and inspiring and I know I had a blast using them. I hope you have enjoyed today's card and design (full list of supplies below). Keep hopping along and check out my other fellow teammates’ pages. They have some pretty amazing projects to share.

Stampin' Up! A Good Man - Father's Day Card

Hey peaches! I can not believe that Father's Day is just around the corner! With that in mind, I have been working on a few cards to send. A little background about me: I have two dads. Honestly, I have always had mixed emotions about this day as circumstances, painful ones, have put a bit of a chasm between us. Without going into too many details (out of respect for those involved), growing up was filled with memories that I try to push away, out of my mind. Don't get me wrong; I have do memories of times that were happy. I know that they both tried their best to be good fathers, and I know deep down that they really did love me. They just didn't always know how to show it. Fathering can't be easy and no matter what, they will always be my dads. Seeing my daughter grow up with an incredible dad has been so wonderful. I didn't know a dad could love that big and that selflessly, but he does. He gives of himself without question, without expecting anything in return. He loves unconditionally and for that reason, this card made think of him and my little girl. She adores him and his wonderful example will set a high standard of what kind of man she will allow in her life. For that, my heart is so happy.


Well, now that I've spilled way more than usual about myself, LOL, here's today's card. I have used the brand new A Good Man Stamp Set. I just love this set and the beautiful way the images are drawn. The sentiments are so gorgeous too, every one seemingly custom made just for my husband. Naturally I had to create a soft watercolor background which was made using Bermuda Bay Ink and the brand new Seaside Spray Ink. I "flicked" on some black ink using my Black Stampin' Write Marker. To color my main image I used my blends (listed below for an easy reference). Here's a close-up of my card:
