AWOW Blog Hop: Embossing Techniques

February 8, 2023 7 Comments

Hi Friends! It’s time again for our monthly “Around the World on Wednesday” Blog Hop! The theme for this month is “EMBOSSING” – and that could be wet, dry, heat, or whatever type of embossing floats our boat!

Since I showed the “Mosaic Embossing Technique” on my greeting card boxes yesterday, I thought I’d incorporate that onto my card for today’s blog hop:

I used the “Rugged Icon” dies, with the mountain die as my main focal point (aside from the mosaic background, of course).

Once I had my die cuts done, I pulled out my adhesive sheets and got to work placing the bits and pieces of the “Enjoy the Journey” Designer Series Paper (this is quite relaxing, actually).

Next, I sprinkled on the gold embossing powder, which stuck to the adhesive between the papers, and heat set. Because I was feeling a wee bit artsy, fartsy, I thought I would kick things up a notch and clear embossed the entire mosaic background. You never know how things are going to turn out unless you try, right? And it’s FUN, so that’s what counts most.

A little bit of twine and a white embossed sentiment was all that I needed to finish this card. I have so many ideas of ways I can use the “Mosaic Embossing Technique” on my cards – I can’t wait to get back to my craft room.

I suspect I’m going to have even MORE ideas once I see what everyone in our AWAO blog hop has created for us today! So let’s blog hop, shall we? Next up is Annette Ball, who I just know will have a fabulous card or project waiting for us!

I joined Stampin' Up! the first night they arrived in Canada, April 2002, and what a ride it's been! At the time I just wanted the discount on all of the fabulous stamps and accessories - why pay full price if you don't have to, right? But little did I know where my journey with Stampin' Up! would take me. Read More…

    My word! I don’t often come across a technique I’ve never seen before but you’ve shown me one! I’m going to give it a try sometime. Very eye-catching and a unique look on a card. It really looks like mosaic tile with that glaze over the top. Thank you for sharing this!

    Oh, wow, what a job on this map! The mosaic technique is already amazing but coupled with thermal embossing! What a fantastic idea!
