Hi, all! Kristina here with another card and video. :)
Today I used the Snowman Scene embossing folder from Nellie Snellen. I embossed some dark navy cardstock so that I could create a "night" scene. Applying Picket Fence Distress Stain to the embossed area allowed the debossed scene to stand out, and it also allowed a great surface for colored pencils.
To see how I achieved this look, be sure to watch the video below. :)
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteMy initial reaction was that I did not really like the card, but once I watched the video, I was glad that I did. WOW! I ALWAYS learn something from Kristina. Great teacher and SO CREATIVE!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!! Lee-Ann :)
ReplyDeleteSome great tips and technique ideas in this one. I'm glad you kept that blue snowflake and explained about it, that could be an interesting way to get a bit of a color into the Stickles. Very cute card. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute!
ReplyDeleteI always pick up tips and tricks from your videos. Thanks for including your original thoughts and how they morph as the project takes shape. I learn a lot from you including those bits in your videos.
ReplyDeleteHey! This is really cute! I hadn't seen the scene embossing folders before but this is such a clever way to use them. I love to color with colored pencils and think it would be so fun! Love the tip for applying the stickles with the brush!
ReplyDeleteI have seen the embossing folders with a scene but didn't think I would use them - but I like what you did on the video and think I will give one a try.

ReplyDeleteGreat idea and card!
ReplyDeleteAnother amazing card - thanks so much Kristina!!
ReplyDeleteThink this is a great card and great idea! Love teh embossing folder from Nellie Snellen...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder that you don't always have to use the whole stamped image on your card. Sometimes just part of it makes a statement.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely amazing, Love it, have been wondering how to use those scene folders! Thanks much!
