Thank you so much for joining me for Fun Fold Friday featuring the Impressions ABloom Bundle and the brand new Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder! 🌼
I also used one of my favorite staples—Two-Tone Cardstock. It’s perfect for layering without adding extra bulk, and I love that it has both a light and dark side. When you distress it, that white core peeks through beautifully! It pairs so well with the Impressions of Bloom and coordinates effortlessly with our Designer Series Papers.
Hope you enjoyed today’s project and feel inspired to give it a try. Let me know which part you loved most!

Sunflower Embossing Techniques

Creative Playtime with the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder! 🌻

Today I’m having so much fun experimenting with the new Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder—available this July!

I used the same folder to create six completely different looks, all by switching up the techniques and embellishments:

🎨 Blending Brushes

🖍️ Stampin’ Blends

✨ Gold Weave Trim

🌈 Rainbow Dots

🌼 Flower Accents

It’s amazing how much variety you can get with one embossing folder when you let your creativity take the lead. I love how each one turned out so different—yet equally beautiful!
