Here is my card for the ongoing challenge at
with the image of Maise Belle.
Because I did not have an apple embossing folder,
I made one myself.
You can do it too!
(great to use up some of your scraps)
You need:
grey board
scraps
punch
glue
cuttlebug
Punch out a lot of items with your punch.
I chose to make my own apple embossing folder.
With a glue stick I glued the apples to the grey board.
I stack two apples on top of each other to make the relief.
If you use thin paper maybe stack 3 or 4.
Now it depends on what kind of embossing machine
you have and this needs a little experimenting.
I have a cuttlebug and I use two B plates and a mat of silicone rubber.
Stack like this: b-plate- home mate embossing folder -
paper - silicone mat - b plate.
Hope you give this a try too.
Supplies:
