Playing around the other day, I came up with this crazy idea, and it worked! I wanted to “letterpress” solid images into cardstock. Once I saw that it could be done, I made a video and started making projects. In fact, I have two days worth of projects for you!! Be sure and watch the video, so all these project photos make sense! :)

This is the first project that popped into my head…making clouds.
Just like I created in the video. Still so pumped that it turned out! :)
This technique is like having your own embossing folders!
I die cut Spellbinders S3-038 Butterfly Reflections several times and lined them up. Imagine this with flowers, flourishes, circles, boy, I could go on for hours!
And not only your own embossing folders, but dies to match!!
Are you excited to try this? Are you inspired? What would you do with this technique? I still have so many ideas!!! Be sure and stop back tomorrow for more project ideas!!
thanks for stopping by!
