Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
Spellbinders added a new club this month and I was all in.
It's 3D embossing folders and I do love embossing folders.
This embossing folder has such deep embossing! It was quite easy to sponge color
on the raised areas without making too much of a mess.
And I tried another using watercolor paper, ink and a waterbrush.
I got a little heavy handed here. The darker leaves were colored with the two inks
smooshed on a palette and blended together.
I used another piece embossed with Neenah Solar White for the background.
This was not my favorite but I thought I'd share anyway.
This really is a beautiful embossing folder and I think they sold out quickly.

I joined the Embossing Club before they offered the 3D one, Bonnie - they are so beautiful, I may have to switch!
Two wonderful ways to color them up with these gorgeous colors!

I am loving the embossing folders I've been seeing by Spellbinders too Bonnie! I didn't join this club, but thinking it is one to definitely join. I love the 3D embossing folders a lot and this is a gorgeous one for sure! Love your first card, the soft colors are pretty and of course the embossing speaks for itself and does all the work. Your second card is fun and more playful to me. I am liking the darker colors, but love the softer ones a bit more. Each card has it's own place to be used and both are beautiful in their own right! Hugs, Brenda
Like Michele, I joined the embossing folder club before they offered the 3D one, and now I'm thinking I may want to switch too after seeing your 2 beautiful cards Bonnie! I think the 1st is my favorite because of the softer colors, but the 2nd card is just beautiful too! Lovely, lovely cards my friend!! Hugs. :0)
I'm loving all these new 3D folders. It's unbelievable all the ways you can use them and yours with the sponged and watercolored inks are both beautiful, Bonnie.
Love your colour combinations in these two cards! It's a beautiful embossing folder for sure. The first one is my favourite with the lighter hand on the colouring.
Such a pretty 3D embossing folder Bonnie, and two wonderful ways of colouring it, both look really beautiful and love the presentation on both with the different shaped mats and with a more simple backdrop using the Subtle EF on the first, and then the white version of the Spring Burst EF used as a background as well as the topper which looks great on the second. x
Every time you post and mention this club I end up over there looking and trying to decide if I should join. I wonder where I could put all those folders because I'm running low on space. Thinking... All that to say -- You do such a beautiful job with them, your color touches on both cards are gorgeous, and now I have to go look again. Thanks, Bonnie!
Beautiful, and I love the embossing on the card base too. Lovely texture.
I agree there are so many wonderful embossing folders about these days. Love what you have done with this one especially the second card where you have used it as the background too. An excellent idea that has worked brilliantly xx
That's really a pretty embossing folder and I love the way you used it for both cards. BOTH are so pretty!

Every time you sponge or color an embossing folder I'm in awe. I may have tried once and had a mess. These are both beautifully done and I'm particularly fold of the soft pastels on the first one. I really need to get down there to take a few lessons!
Two beautiful cards using your latest embossing folder Bonnie. I LOVE the colours you've used and how you did it with two different techniques really shows the versatilty of EFs. xx
Wow..Two Gorgeous 3D embossed cards using the same beautiful 3D EB Folder and different coloring techniques, Bonnie. I favor the 1st card too, but love them both. TFS my friend. Love and Hugs...
What a great EF! Both versions are lovely, Bonnie but I'm partial to the soft colors on the first one!
that's such a beautiful embossing folder and both versions are so pretty ♥
Gorgeous! And now you have two terrific cards from one folder.
Wonderful cards Bonnie - that embossing folder is beautiful, and you have made a couple of stunning cards with it - I do prefer the top card, but they are both lovely
Blessings

These are just lovely Bonnie... wonder what the postage is here to the UK for this club... might have to check it out! x
I do love the design on this embossing folder - no wonder it sold out! my favorite card? Not that you asked me to vote -The first card with the softer colors.

I had to go back and look again at the first one to know you used the same e/f on both cards. How versatile it is by changing the orientation and the colors. What a great folder this is and your cards show it off to perfection.
When I saw SB offering 3D EF as a club option, I thought of you because you use them so well.. which you’ve proved with these two cards.
Beautifully done with the lovely 3D EF. Both cards look great.
What a wonderful card! I like the embossing folder and the “colouring” technique you used. Delighted to have you join us at Krafty Chicks Challenge for CAS week.

Perfect club for you, Bonnie! Both of your cards are so pretty. Your sponging on the first one is done so well, and I like the watercolored one just as much. Thanks for showcasing our colors so well, at Color Hues! Have a great Friday!
Your new 3D embossing folder's image is so pretty, Bonnie! Love
Hideko xx
So happy to have you join our challenge at Color Hues,Bonnie! I grabbed this EF just in time. WOW, it's gorgeous on your card! I love the textured card front too, and your coloring is beautifully done.
Two beautiful card, Bonnie. The colors in this challenge are perfect this EF.
