Copper Embossed Affectionately Yours

Welcome to Punchin' Up!

Copper, Copper, Copper 

This Fun/Fancy Fold card I'm sharing with you today I think is just gorgeous with all the copper,  Copper Foil Paper, Copper Embossing Powder and Copper Embossed Designers Series Paper. 

Here it is opened, isn't that fun...

 

I had so much fun making this card.  I normally tell everyone at my classes that you have to 

"stamp first" and then punch out, but on this cards the rules changed.  I had everyone punch out the flowers first, stamp the centers of the flowers with Versa Mark and then emboss with Copper Embossing Powder.  I had never embossed on the foil paper and I hadn't seen where anyone else has tried.  So I thought well... what have I got to loose, I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out, but I think it is beautiful.  What do you think?

The flowers are put on with Stampin' Dimensionals to give that extra pop.

Products Used:

Stamp Set:  Love and Affection

Cardstock:  Crumb Cake, Copper Foil Sheets

Punches:  Pansy, Decorative Label,

Thinlits:  Rose Garden

Designers Series Paper: Affectionately Yours

Dragonfly Dreams

Welcome to Punchin' Up!

Dragonfly Dreams

I'm so excited today to show you one of the cards I created using the Stamp Set "Dragonfly Dreams" from the NEW Occasions Catalog and the Stamp Set "Avant Garden" (which you can get for FREE) from the Sale-a-Bration Catalog.  Both Catalogs were just released on January 4, 2017.  I love both these sets and "Dragonfly Dreams" is available as a Bundle Deal with the Thinlits to do all the precise cutting for you.  No Fussy Cutting, you can't ask for anything better than that. 

 I added Wink of Stella to the dragonfly to make it glimmer and pop, but it's hard to see in the photo, but it is oh... so pretty.

 

You guessed it...

It is a Fun Fold Card 

I love doing fun/fancy folds as I think it adds dimension to the card.
