Hi cardmaking friends – welcome back!   Today, I’m wrapping up the Spellbinders January Clubs with these two January 2026 Embossing Club Cards.  I’m a huge fan of embossing folders because they add incredible texture and interest with very little effort, and there are so many fun techniques you can explore with them.  For these cards, I went in two completely different creative directions, and I hope you enjoy seeing both approaches.

Products used to create the Spellbinders Jan 2026 Embossing Clubs Cards:

• Cloud Nine Embossing Folder – Embossing Club
• Best Year Sentiments – Clear Stamp and Die of the Month
• Sunny Stems – Small Die of the Month
• Cottage Wall – 3D Embossing Club of the Month

How to create the Spellbinders Jan 2026 Embossing Clubs Card #1

Start with a 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ panel of Cotton Candy cardstock and emboss it using the Cloud Nine Embossing Folder.  Attach the embossed panel to a top-folding A2-sized white card base.

Next, use the Sunny Stems Small Die of the Month and die cut two floral stems in pink and green cardstock.  Adhere the florals to the card front.

To finish, white heat-emboss a sentiment from the Best Year Sentiments set onto black cardstock.  Die cut or trim the sentiment and add it over the stems at the base of the florals.

This technique is a quick and easy way to add texture, interest, and depth to your card background.  You can easily take it a step further by ombre blending three shades of pink, or by covering the panel with Distress Oxide Sprays before embossing for an even more dramatic effect.

Card #2

Emboss a 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ black panel using the Cottage Wall embossing folder.  Lightly drag a VersaMark ink pad over the raised areas, cover with gold embossing powder, shake off the excess and heat set.

Attach the panel to a top-folding A2-sized white card base.

Next, gold heat-emboss a sentiment from the Best Year Sentiments set onto black cardstock. Die cut or trim the sentiment and add it to the top center of the card.

This look can easily be stepped up by watercoloring a panel first and then using the “BLACKOUT” technique.  You could also try ink blending an ombre effect before embossing, or adding color to the embossed image with Copic markers or other coloring mediums for a completely differently finish.
