Around the World on Wednesday – Techniques

February 8, 2023 by Mikaela Titheridge 11 Comments

Today we’re going Around the World on Wednesday as we share the Teams favourite Techniques.

Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop including Mikaela Titheridge, UK Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, The Crafty oINK Pen. Supplies available through my online store 24/7

Welcome, and if you’ve hopped over from  Aurélie, then I know you’ll have already been spoilt to fabulous inspiration.

Asking the Team what their favourite Techniques are, it materialises that Embossing comes out tops. It’s of no surprise to me, as it is my absolute favourite Technique of all time.

For my creative share today, I decided to use the fabulous Sweet Citrus Hybrid Embossing Folder. A unique folder that pairs Dies and Embossing to both cut and emboss in one move.

Taking the Scalloped Contour Die and some Country Gingham paper, I cut a layer that would sit offset. Heat Embossing some randomly stamped flowers white to pop out from beneath this panel.

Stamping the Sweet Citrus fruit with Daffodil Delight onto Basic white cardstock, I proceeded to cut and emboss with the Hybrid folder. The texture that this folder creates is just wonderful.

With a play on words, I proceeded to die cut some letters using Adhesive Foam Sheet to back some Black Card stock. Heat Embossing white on black, I added the sentiment extension before adhering to the card.

A scattering of stamped and die cut flowers and sequins and my card was complete. Fresh and zesty, this card makes me smile.

I hope you’ve enjoyed my creative share today and that I’ve inspired you to use our Hybrid Embossing Folders.

    I love how you’ve subtly used so much embossing in this bright and cheerful card! Plus gingham and scalloped borders. you are really checking off all of the boxes with this one!

    Lovely! I like those embossed white flowers on the card front – so subtle that you almost miss them on first glance but they add so much by being there. Nice play on words too.

I may have been quieter than normal with my crafti I may have been quieter than normal with my crafting but I recently designed a series of cards for Die Cutting Essentials Magazine using the Fern & Flora Bundle by Stampin' Up!

I adore the botanical feel of these dies and what you can create with them. This wreath card screams whispy fresh air combined with richness, I just loved creating it. Would you welcome a botanical card like this for your birthday?
