Sometimes the best creative discoveries happen when we simply allow ourselves to play — and that’s exactly what today’s project is all about! Instead of using 3D embossing folders in the traditional way, I decided to explore different techniques, experiment with texture, and see what unique results could be created by thinking a little outside the box.
3D embossing folders are already amazing for adding depth and dimension to cardmaking, but with a few creative twists, they can become even more versatile tools in your craft room.
In this session, I focused on creative play, trying new approaches, and embracing experimentation to discover fresh ideas for backgrounds, texture, and overall design.

Here’s a look at the card I shared last night on social media featuring the Bright & Beautiful incentive set that you can earn for FREE with a $75+ purchase from Gina K Designs. Don’t forget that if you do qualify, to go and grab the coordinating die!
I paired the colored image with one of the frames from the Tiara Twin Frames and the background is using the Gingham embossing folder.
