Hey Crafty People!
This project is the perfect follow-up to my full-panel embossing card—same base technique, completely different finish! Here I’ve created a background using colour blocking with ultra high powders, paired with a die-cut sentiment panel from Hero Arts.
It’s quick, impactful, and lets the embossing really shine.
Colour Blocking With Ultra High Embossing
- Cover a panel of cardstock with heatproof double-sided adhesive.
- Peel back half of the backing and pour on pink Ultra High embossing powder. Tap off the excess.
- Peel off the remaining backing and add purple Ultra High embossing powder. Tap off and heat set thoroughly from behind.
- Die cut the large Hero Arts sentiment cover die from Neenah 80lb cardstock.
- Adhere the die-cut panel to the textured base using strong liquid glue.
- Finish by embellishing with some of the little die-cut hearts from the cover plate!
Fast, fabulous, and full of shine—this card is a total showstopper. I love combining big impact designs with minimal fuss. Be sure to check out the coordinating card if you want to make the most of your embossing powders and adhesives.
Please be aware:
As part of my Design Team and Guest Design work I do often receive free products to use, but I only ever recommend products that I genuinely love.
Also, I know how incredibly lucky I am to have these opportunities, but you don’t always NEED the newest products or the ‘full set’.
So please don’t feel that you need everything.
I like to show a variety of brands and products; this way there will be something for everybody to enjoy.
