On Todays Card I Used the Aspen Tree Dies to Emboss instead of Cut!!

 My color combo for this creation includes:  Sahara Sand, Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze, Early Espresso and a touch of GOLD!!

Did you know that you can use MANY of our detailed dies to emboss instead of cut an image?  It's true, and exactly what I did on this card today.  Here is how you would set up the "sandwich" on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine......

--Standard Base Plate #1 (do away w/ skinny Plate #2)

--Clear Plate

--Any die image w/ cutting edge facing up

--Card Stock on top of die

--2 (yes two) Silicone Craft Mats

--Clear Plate

Your chosen detailed die will emboss instead of cut!!  VERY COOL HUH?  (The Artistic Dies w/ the big flower shown on pg. 169 will work great for this technique too for example!!)

 

  Thanks for stopping by my blog.  I hope you were inspired and enjoyed todays post.  If you have  questions about anything, make sure to leave me a comment.  I'd love to hear from you.

Perched In A Tree Stamp Set and Aspen Tree Dies by StampinUP Make 2 Cards

 

This project came from my Christmas In July Stamp-A-Stack class.  The attendees got to make 4 of these beauties!  Colors include White, Black (ink), Smoky Slate and Bermuda Bay (bird).

The following StampinUP products were used:

--Smoky Slate StampinWrite Marker

--Silver & Gold Designer Paper (Sale-A-Bration)

--Stampin' Blends

--White Bakers Twine

--Stitched Rectangle Dies

--Perched In A Tree Stamp Set

--Aspen Tree Dies

 For this 2nd card, I used Pale Papaya, Black, White & Cajun Craze for my colors.  The tiny sentiment was cut out with part of the tree limb die (Aspen Tree Dies set).

Other StampinUP products include:

--Rustic Harvest Designer Paper

--Linen Thread

--Open Leaf Trinkets

--Fabulous Frames Dies

Unfortunately, I do not remember which set I used for the sentiment!
