Using your embossing folder as a stamp!

Here is a great way to get more out of your embossing folders and you don't even need a big shot.

• Ink up your brayer
• Brayer the ink over the raised side of the embossing folder
• Place your card on the other side of the embossing folder
• Carefully close your embossing folder
• Wash and dry your brayer
• Firmly brayer over the top of your folder
• Open up folder and you should have a flat image of your embossing folder design
• Wash and dry your folder!

You could also try this using the other side of the image. I have even used versa mark ink then heat embossed.  This is a great way to give your embossing folders a whole new lease of life.

This is another card we made in the faux mother of pearl/elements of style class. I inked the honey comb folder in raspberry ripple ink and used pretty in pink card. I used shimmer paint to ink up the hummingbird stamp.

I sponged over the card as well to give a more vintage look.
