Double Emboss Snowflake

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!


I did a little double embossing for this card.  If you look close, hopefully you can see 
the crackle embossing in the background.

Then I embossed this 3D Snowflake (retired).

I had a time getting a good picture to show the texture and shine.

Love the design of this card with the large snowflake EF against the embossed crumb cake mat and the shiny foil die cut snowflake. Very interesting contrasts. The simple PB sentiment and the red twine sets it off so well.

Lovely Christmas card!

I can see the shine and it’s gorgeous. Wonderful double embossed background. Simple yet impactful.

Leslie Miller said...

I can imagine how awesome this looks in hand, but I'm impressed that you managed such good pics, considering shine requires one angle and embossing another. Tricky! It's so, so pretty with the layered snowflakes!

I just can't be Christmas without kraft, Bonnie! Gosh, I just love this... still haven't tried doubling up! I sure do think it's a brilliant idea with the right embossing folders! Yours worked the charm today!

It is always fun when you see something new - this is new and so attractive. The snowflake on the second card is the color that shows through snow and ice in the natural world.
Never a dull moment when visiting your blog!!

I must try the double embossing! Love your card and all the texture it has. And love the kraft card base - adds a great rustic look.

A lovely, lovely card Bonnie! The red cord against the shiny snowflake and the white on white background tucked into the frame - lots going on and yet so beautifully clean! Vicky x

The card turned out beautifully, Bonnie and your splash of red is just the perfect touch. This technique intrigues me and definitely one I have to try. Thanks for the inspiration!

Beautiful design Bonnie! LOVE your double embossing with the crackle and then that amazing snowflake. Adding the silver top layer and cording makes it so special. xx

Fabulous snowflake card, Bonnie! I didn't think of double-embossing. What a fun technique! The 3D snowflake with subtle crackles in the background is a wonderful design! The shiny silver die-cut and the red thin bow are so pretty!

This embossed snowflake with the added die cut and then simple little bow makes a perfectly gorgeous CAS card Bonnie...lovely, Robyn

Jo said...

Simple with a statement. The bow brings our eye to this beauty. Love it.

The double background embossing looks amazing. The first embossing is slightly marked but still visible. I love every detail of this card, the stitched frame, the extra thin frame around the window, wonderful snowflakes and the combination of white and craft paper. So many beautiful elements on one card.
