Hi Crafters,
There’s something so special about adding beautiful dimension to your handmade cards. Today’s project features the gorgeous Trellis and Pergola 3D Embossing Folders along with the Empress 3D Embossing Plates. This brand-new set creates an incredible three-dimensional effect that makes every design look like a work of art. What's great is that you get two stunning embossing folders, the Rose Trellis and the Wisteria Pergola, plus the specially designed Empress 3D Embossing Plates that work perfectly with your Empress Elite and Empress Elite Mini. Together, they create deep, detailed embossing that is simply breathtaking. It’s always fun to add color and embellishments to make each project come to life in a beautiful way!
Today, we're going to create an elegant birthday card that highlights the beauty of these amazing embossing folders. Come get crafty with us!
Cut a piece of pink cardstock to fit the artwork inside the Rose Trellis 3D Embossing Folder. What’s great is that trimming the paper to the size of the design gives you the most beautiful embossed impression.

Place the cardstock inside the folder and use the Empress 3D Embossing Plates to emboss it through your Empress Elite or Empress Elite Mini. Watch as the gorgeous three levels of dimension come to life.

Apply Petal Pink Hybrid Ink to the roses with a dauber to enhance the petals and bring out every beautiful detail.
Blend Dusty Lavender Hybrid Ink into the flowers to create even more depth and soft shading. Now you can really see the blooms come to life.
Color the leaves with a Gold Chroma Pen. Allow the paint to dry completely before assembling your card. So pretty!

The color really brings your card to life!

Attach the finished embossed panel to your card base with foam adhesive.

Die cut a matte gold frame using the frame and inner shadow layer from the Crop at Home 5 Frame Dies.

Adhere the frame over the embossed background to showcase your beautiful artwork.

Create a floral collage in the lower left corner using stickers from the Antique Greetings Postcard Embellishments. Add a few gold foil embellishments for extra sparkle without covering too much of your embossed design.

Finish your card with a Birthday Greetings sentiment and a butterfly sticker to complete the elegant scene.

Your one-of-a-kind birthday card is ready to brighten someone's special day!

The embossed designs are beautiful with so many different papers, textures and color combinations.

Have fun experimenting with inks, markers, watercolor pens and Chroma Pens to create unique looks every time.

The Wisteria Pergola folder is equally as stunning, and just a few embellishments are all your card needs to make a lasting impression.

These are oh so lovely!
Another wonderful demo. Anna, you come out with so many new products my budget can’t keep up. Being on a fixed income, I must pick and choose. You certainly make it hard. This are a great price on HSN.
But I was THRILLED to see your new fall collections.
