More Double Embossing


Had another play with the double embossing technique using the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots and Birds & Swirls folders. I have coloured the birds and swirls with chalks and added dots of Liquid Pearls. I really love this idea and can't wait to try out more folders together.

Double Embossing with Cuttlebug Folders

I saw this technique done with the Cuttlebug and thought it would be fun to have a go at and I'm quite pleased with the finished result. Used the Swiss Dots folder first then the Stylised Flower folder over the top of the Swiss Dots. Rolling through the bug a second time does flatten the swiss dots but it gives a nice subtle background. You have to play around with different folders as not all folders 'match together'

The inspiration for this technique was from the very talented Sue Nelson of Heartprints

I have chalked the flowers and leaves and the tag was cut on the bug and stamped 'Hi'

You Made My Day

Made using the Cuttlebug 'with love' embossing border folder and 'Diamonds in the Rough' folder. Stamped sentiment and cut circles using Nestabilities with Cuttlebug. Chalked to give a hint of colour.
