Merriest Moments Pointsettia

 Mom & I worked on class samples over the weekend, and had so much fun creating! I wanted to show you how to use this Hybrid Embossing folder/dies. I love these softer, non-traditional colors that could be used all winter (if you change out the sentiment).  Stay tuned.  I will be doing a video on how to use this unique bundle!

Measurements:    

  • Mint Macaron: 1/2 sheet cut LENGTHWISE
  • Just Jade: 1/4 sheet
  • Basic White: 2 1/4" x 3 1/4", scraps
To Make This Card:

  • Fold Mint Macaron half. Run front through new Merriest Frames 3D embossing folder centering image.  Note: this WILL extend to the back a bit.
  • Emboss the Just Jade piece.  This JUST fits, so carefully line it up on the quarter sheet of cardstock.  
  • Now, run this piece through the Cut & Emboss, again, this time using the detail die. (there is just minimal flattening.)
  • Attach this piece to the front of card with Dimentionals. 
  • Stamp sentiment in Mint Macaron onto White piece. Cut out with included, stitched rectangle.  Attach to center of card.
  • Stamp the 2 "poinsettias" in Blushing Bride, and one each of the "holly" in Mint Macaron.  Cut these out with corresponding dies.  Also, cut one flower "center" from White.
  • Shape the "poinsettia" petals with Bone Folder and layer on top of each other with Mini Dimensional, Add White "center".
  • Add this to card front. Tuck and adhere "leaves".
  • Finish with Genial Gems.
