Dry Embossing with a Stencil

By on June 6, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I am going to encourage you to try this at home: a fun technique that adds such flair to a handmade card. That technique is using a stencil to dry emboss on your card panel.

I must first say: it’s difficult to capture the embossed look on camera, so I’m going to show you some close up photos first.

See that embossed look…notice the lower leaves
Dots added for interest

Can you see the embossing? A photo is so tricky to capture that! But in real life, it adds another dimension and is oh-so-pretty!

To finish off this card, I added some dots to the leaves, and bubble embellishments to the flowers.

I have a short video to show you how to do this, watch it below or on YouTube:

See, fun and easy…and pretty quick to add some flair to your card.

I hope you enjoyed this bonus technique about stencils. Did you see my first video on how to use a stencil 5 ways? See it here.

I’m often asked what supplies I’ve used on my projects, so I’ve added the list here.

Hello! Today I am so happy to share some projects using a new set by Our Daily Bread Designs. This product is called Wavy Words Stamp/Die Duo. I love that the words in the set fit perfectly in the banner die that is included!


Here are my happy projects:

The font is so fun on that Happy Birthday sentiment, don’t you think? If you look closely, you can see the embossing on that banner die. I die cut the banner, and then ran it back through my die cut machine using the embossing mat to get the best impression! (I’ll show you what I mean in the video below).

This next card uses the embossing technique with a die, as well as HEAT embossing on the Mr. & Mrs. Here I used one of my favorite colors of embossing powders: Liquid Platinum by Ranger. I used mostly white on white, with just a touch of blue Distress Ink in the background.


My last card is a favorite because it uses SUNSHINE!
