Inlaid Embossing card using Softly Sophisticated – Sale-A-Bration Sunday tutorial

February 11, 2024
4 Comments

11 Feb

Hello! We only have 2 more Sale-A-Bration Sundays after today. Don’t miss out on the chance to earn free products with qualifying Stampin’ Up! orders. This promotion ends on 29 February 2024. Today I’m sharing an Inlaid Embossing card using the Softly Sophisticated stamp set and embossing folder…

If you want to know more about Sale-A-Bration please CLICK HERE to see the promotional brochure from Stampin’ Up! and CLICK HERE to see the new items just added in February! This is one of my favourite times of year, because who doesn’t love to get extra products for free? You can get freebies for shopping and joining my team too!

I used circle punches to cut the stamped images from Softly Sophisticated , These were added to some Perennial Lavender designer series paper, before being embossed. This technique gives the impression of your images being inlaid into the paper…

This is a great technique for card you want to send in the mail, as there’s less chance of having to pay additional postage costs. After all, we want to #MakeACardSendACard as often as possible!

I’ve recorded a video tutorial to show you the card I made originally and how to make another one with this technique…

I’d love you to click on the image above or if you prefer you can click here to pop over to YouTube and check out how to make this Inlaid Embossing card . If you enjoy watching my video, I’d love you to give it a thumbs up and leave me a comment too. If you haven’t already subscribed to my channel, make sure you do so when you’re there; so you don’t miss out on future videos.

Here’s the card I made in the video…

Now, I will admit that I’m not totally happy with my colour selection for this second card. But that’s what happens when you don’t fully plan, LOL.

I hope you’ve enjoyed today’s Sale-A-Bration Sunday project and will give it a try too.
