Today’s card is sending you Best Wishes with the Stitched All Around Bundle from the NEW 2018-2019 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog! The Stitched All Around Bundle is NEW and an absolutely wonderful stamp set. There are eight sentiments of which six coordinate beautifully with the Stitched Labels Framelits. This is a MUST have set for this year.
Stitched All Around Bundle
Best Wishes Card
I’ve absolutely fallen in LOVE with the Stitched All Around Bundle. The set is versatile with beautiful Framelits which cut the sentiments out with a faux stitched die cut. I’m over-the-hill excited to have these NEW Stitched Labels Framelits which work well with so many other stamp sets.
The card I’ve created features the “Best Wishes” which is Heat Embossed and die cut on a fun tag. I’m also excited to share that today’s card features a FUN technique using the NEW Big Shot Embossing Mats. These mats are awesome for converting cutting dies to a die that creates an embossed look on your card.
Reverse Die Impression Video
Here is a Facebook Live video that I did where I use the Big Shot Embossing Mats along with the Flourish Thinlits to create a Reverse Die Impression. You’ll definitely want to watch the video to learn more about the Reverse Die Impression Technique. I will definitely be playing with this technique paired with several Stampin’ Up! Framelits and Thinlits.
