Spellbinders Explore Beyond: Sneak Peek and Giveaway - Day Five

Hello!  Welcome to day 5 of the Spellbinders Explore Beyond: Sneak Peek and Giveaway. I am very excited to be sharing the new 3-D Embossing Folder E3D-003 Delightful Daisies with you.  The new 3-D Embossing Folder is beyond amazing!  You are going to love the depth and detailed results from these new folders.

Supply List:

Spellbinders Paper Arts™ Grand Calibur® Machine

3-D Embossing Folder E3D-003 Delightful Daisies

S6-001 5 x 7 Card Creator Matting Basics A 

Cross Promotional Partners:

JustRite Papercraft CL-04390 Butterfly Dreams

Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko® Delicata Golden Glitz Pigment Ink; Memento™ Desert Sand, Rich Cocoa; StazOn® Timber Brown

The Rubber Café Pearl Jellie Dots, Stick “EM” Up Tool

Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L™ EZ Runner®

Other Supplies Used:

Paper:  DiscountCardstock.com Champagne Metallic, Posh Milk Chocolate

Accessories:  Really Reasonable Ribbon Gold Metallic String; Clear Glaze, Crystal Beads

To begin, use the S6-001 5x7 Matting Basics A die template #7 from the set, die # 1 being the smallest.  Cut the Champagne Metallic paper using the Grand Calibur® Machine.

Lightly mist the front and back of the paper to loosen up the fibers in the paper.  This will give you an even deeper and crisper emboss.

Next use a brayer to apply the Golden Glitz ink to the 3-D Embossing Folder for prefect coverage of the ink.  If you do happen to get some ink in an area that you don’t want simply use a Q-tip to remove the ink.  

The 3-D Embossing Folder is a little bit thicker than the M-Bossabilites™ folders so the sandwich is a little bit different.  Starting from the bottom up layer the plates in this order:  B Embossing Plate, 3-D Embossing Folder and D Adapter Plate.  You will use this sandwich for both the larger plates and junior plates.  Once you have your plates lined up run them through the Grand Calibur.

Check out the amazing embossed detail!  I am showing pictures at two different angles since the paper is metallic and the ink is very shimmery depending on how the light catches it you will get different looks.

Next I used a Q-tip with Memento™ Desert Sand and Rich Cocoa inks to add some darker colors and shading to the daisies, butterfly and banner.  Then I used Rich Cocoa ink to stamp the flourish and StazOn® Timber Brown for the sentiment.  The stamp set CL-04390 Butterfly Dreams is a CHA Release from JustRite Papercraft.

Here are some close up pictures so you can see all of the detail.

I layered Posh Milk Chocolate for a mat behind the embossed paper and then added some gold metallic string and beads to dangle on the side and adhered it to a Champagne Metallic card base.

To finish off the card I added a clear glaze and pearls to the flower centers and the body of the butterfly.

I created a second project using the 3-D Embossing folder but for this project I fussy cut some of the embossed images and embellished the top of the decorative box.

I also made panels using the 3-D Embossing folder and covered the sides of the box.  Then I added lace, trim, pink wrinkled ribbon, pearls, a butterfly cameo and a handmade stick pin.
