This Technique was a little intimidating to me at first but after I gave it a try and determined the best chipboard thickness it became one of my favorites. 

Thanks so much for watching and stopping by, there will be one more week in this "Emboss like a boss" Challenge and I will be combining multiple embossing techniques on one card, stay tuned.

Embossing using 2-Folders

Hello friends, 

This embossing technique is so fast, easy, and fun. I love getting the most of my craft supplies/tools and this idea definitely does that. Just simply layer 2 embossed images on the same card front. Its that Easy!!  And the effect is so pretty and sure to WOW the recipient.

Inlay Embossing Tree Card

Inlay Embossing

Let's make a big 'ol mess in the craft room today!! Using supplies that you probably already have, this tecnique is a must try for sure. So pull out your embossing folders, dies, punches, stamp sets, inks and paper scraps. 

For the Tree Card.... Lg tree 2 1/2" X 4" -notch at 1 1/4" (**angle cut from notch to corner for both sides creating the triangle shape)....Trunk 3/4" X 1"

                                 Md tree 1 1/2" X 3"-notch at 3/4"**.....Trunk 1/2" X 1"

                                 Sm tree 3/4" X 2"-notch at 3/8" **....Trunk 1/4" X 1"

-Cut the pieces for the trees and trunks using scraps

-Ink the edges of the trees and trunks using Distress Inks

-Glue the Trees directly to the card front

-Run the card front through a cutting machine such as the Big Shot (on the appropriate tab for embossing folders). It works best with any embossing folder with a dense image-meaning the image has a lot on it and not much open space.

-Glue the front to a base and pop up a sentiment and it's finished.... unless you want to add embellishments, ribbon, etc. 

For the Snowflake Card...I used multiple snowflake punches and followed the same steps.
