NEW VIDEO – Embossed Card with Distress Oxide Ink Sprays

Hey friends!  I have a new cardmaking video to share with you today featuring an embossed card created with Distress Oxide Ink Sprays.  I had so many questions about the background on THIS CARD I shared last week, I thought it would be fun to create a simpler version – this time without the Copic-colored flowers.

For the focal point, I used the beautiful Heart Wreath from the recent Simon Says Stamp Heart to Heart release, and in the video, I walk you through how to use Distress Oxide Ink Sprays to add color and depth and gold embossing to highlight the embossed panel.

and yes….a quick personal note.

I know it’s been a little while since I’ve posted a video.  After dealing with ongoing issues with Adobe, I finally. (after 18 years),  made the switch to Filmora for video editing – and wow!  I’m kicking myself for not changing sooner!  After editing this video, I can say the program is incredibly easy to use and, best of all, it just works.  If you enjoy video editing (or don’t enjoy – as in my case), I highly recommend giving Filmora a try (and it’s WAY cheaper too).

Thanks so much for your patience and support, and I hope you enjoy the video!

How to create the Embossed Card with Distress Oxide Ink Sprays:

I walk you step-by-step through the process in the video, but here are a few extra details to help you recreate this card.

Cardstock Cuts:

  • Card base:  4-1/4″ x 11″, score and fold at 5-1/2″ – Lavender
  • Mat:  4″ x 5-1/4″ – gold
  • Art piece:  3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″ watercolor paper

Background and Embossing:

  1. Spritz both sides of the watercolor paper with water, then emboss it with the Heart Wreath Embossing Folder.
  2. Next, while keeping the paper wet, apply the Distress Oxide Ink Sprays, then heat set to dry.
  3. Heat emboss the background using the Words of Love stamp.
  4. Heat emboss the raised embossed heart wreath in gold to highlight the texture.
  5. Die cut and assemble the sentiment, and attach to the center of the heart.
