Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder: 3 Techniques & 3 Simple Card Ideas

Do you ever see a product that you love, but then once you get it, you're not quite sure what to do with it? That is how I felt with the amazing 'Sunflower' 3D Embossing Folder from Stampin' Up!. I've seen so many amazing samples and I was sure I'd be able to create them too! But I'm here to admit, some of them were too hard for me to recreate!😳

So, my goal this week was to give you 3 ideas that if I can do them - you can too!

Card 1

All 3 cards were designed to make a little set, so they each have elements that coordinate with each other. They all also feature yellow! There are lots of fun ways to be creative with this folder, but I really wanted to start with a classic Sunflower look.

• This first card is really simple and fun to create. By embossing with Two-Tone Cardstock, you get all the amazing dimension of the 3D folder AND the texture of the white core of the paper, just by doing a little sanding!

Card 2

This second card steps it up just a little but adding a bit of colour to the folder before you emboss. I wasn't too sure about this at first, but once it was cut and complete on the card, I really love how it turned out.

• Bundle: All these cards also features the 'Label Me Grateful' Stamp Set. It has perfect sentiments for a fall card. I stuck with the 'Thank You' to create a set.

Card 3

This final card steps it up again, but in a way that you can recreate even if you're like me and you love card making but aren't particularly artistic. (in regards to water colouring etc.)

• I love the richness of the Early Espresso as the base. You can see that it's not perfect, but I still think it works well. I paired this with Crushed Curry & Mossy Meadow for a good Fall colour combo.
