Ok are you ready for our next fun challenge? Your going to love this tutorial done by Gina K.
 Gina will be showing us how to make 2 fast and beautiful techniques by using an embossing folder. So take a look at this video and then share with us your amazing cards.

Here are the Letterpress DT inspiration cards featuring A Day For Daisies digi stamps...


Carolyn
 
TIP:  When putting your supplies away after using them, remember where you put them.  My Stamp-m-jig for stamping a straight sentiment would be a handy piece of equipment to use in stamping the image so it would be straight. 

Lynne aka Her Craftiness
Tip: I purchased a nail brush at the dollar store which is phenomenal to wash my stamps and embossing folders as it get the ink out of the tiny crevices with no mess!

Jennyfer - Jennyfer Creates
Tip: You can wash your embossing folder with soap and water if the ink is reluctant to come out!
 It won't damage anything.

    Marilyn - Marilyn's Crafts

    

    Tip:  When embossing with text, only one side can be inked with this technique. 
    The other side will display the text as reversed.


    Cindy-  In Love with Paper
    TiP:  Ink the edges of your patterned paper layer, too!

    Sandy- A Working Mom's Joy
    TIP: Less is More!  Let your digi and technique do the talkin' for your card, 
    sometimes extra embellishments are just not needed!
     
     
     
     
     


    TIP: Put all your Christmas card making supplies in a basket to keep close at hand during the season of making cards.

    Tip: Using a baby wipe or makeup remover wipe works really well for cleaning your folders.

Building Block Graduation Card

Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
