Are you ready for the NEW 2024-25 Annual Catalog?? It’s here!! And it’s full of new, exciting products…including the gorgeous new In Colors!! They’re hitting the pastel hues, but at the same time, they’re bright and cheerful. I love them!
I made a simple card today that is a super fun and easy background to create, using an Embossing Folder. You could use any Embossing Folder to create this template, but today I chose the new Dotted Circles 3D Embossing Folder. Check it out!!
PLEASE CLICK HERE to watch how I made this card. It’s such a fun and easy one!!
I started out with a regular-size card base of the new Summer Splash cardstock, measuring 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ and folded in half.
Next, I cut 5 strips of cardstock, using each of the 5 new In Colors: Summer Splash, Peach Pie, Petunia Pop, Shy Shamrock, and Pretty in Pink (by the way…who else is THRILLED the Pretty in Pink is back?!?! ME!!!!!!). Each strip measures 3/4″ x 5″. I adhered them all, using Liquid Glue, to a piece of Basic White cardstock, measuring 3-3/4″ x 5″.
After all of the strips were glued onto the Basic White cardstock piece, I put that entire piece into the Dotted Circles 3D Embossing Folder, and ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine. You won’t believe this amazing new Embossing Folder…it’s HUGE!! You can emboss WAY bigger pieces of cardstock than ever before! The folder itself measures 6″ x 8-1/2″!! I was stunned when I saw it in person for the first time. Remember…a folder this big will obviously only fit in the LARGE embossing machine.
After I embossed the cardstock, I stuck this onto a larger piece of Basic White cardstock, which measures 4″ x 5-1/4″. I wrapped a piece of our new Petunia Pop Bordered Ribbon around it, and tied it in a knot. Any of the new In Color ribbons would have looked great here!! Take your pick!
Finally, I stamped “Happy Birthday” from the new Simply Said stamp set, using Summer Splash ink, onto one of the adorable dies from the Unbounded Love die set. I’m telling you right now…I think this die is going to be used more than anything else for awhile! I *love* it!! And I finished it off by sprinkling a few of the sparkly new 2024-26 In Color Shimmer Gems…*swoon!!!* They are gorgeous!
I hope you have your wheels turning, and come up with some fun color combinations and different Embossing Folders to try this card layout with!! HAVE FUN!!!
