embossing enamel

Today we are going to play with embossing enamels. I find they give you gorgeous results, lovely shine and they really take your projects to the next level. I have a snowflake card today, perfect everyone! You can hand it out to both men and women and it’s so elegant.

For the background I used the Stampendous Cling Stamp DECOR SNOWFLAKES ( SSS | AMZUK | STMP ). It’s a big 8×8 stamp, perfect for big projects like home decor or art journal backgrounds. But it works perfectly fine for cardmaking too!

I used the stamp on a dark blue panel with versamark ink. I then applied Stampendous AGED IVORY Embossing Enamel ( SSS | SBC | CRF | STMP ). Ivory and blue make such an elegant combination and the touch of gold here and there make the perfect festive card.

For my focal point I used the snowflake die included in the Stampendous Stamp & Die Set – Winter White ( CST | SSS | BLT | STMP ). I didn’t stamp the details inside and this way it can work as a star or as a snowflake. I cut out the snowflake from a paper that I completely covered up with the AGED IVORY enamel.

To embellish my focal point I used some string and a Christmas Token. I also did some decorating on the inside of the card as you will see in the video. You can enjoy the video below or at my YouTube channel
