Simon Says Stamp - Coloring FLORAL BUNCHES Embossing Folder Friendship Card with Markers


Greeting card with blue flowers and yellow butterflies on a green background. Text reads "hello friend." Bright and cheerful design.

Hello Lovelies! I am always amazed at the new crafty treats we get to explore each month with Simon Says Stamp and lately I've been focused on trying new tricks with these treats. See what I did there??? The Moments In Time release has several options to help us celebrate those special milestones, but today's card is just a sweet message for a friend.


The technique that I am working on for this project is coloring an embossing folder or more specifically the embossed cardstock with alcohol markers. To be honest, I found it a lot easier than expected and very relaxing. My "trick" for this is to try not to go right to the edge of the design that you are coloring, but to stop just short of it and let the ink work its magic. Also, as a beginner, I felt more confident with lighter marker colors, which are more forgiving.

DIE-CUTTING & EMBOSSING

  2. Emboss 110lb white cardstock with the Floral Bunches Embossing Folder.





DIE-CUTTING & EMBOSSING


  1. Trace the boundaries of the leaf or flower with your marker. I recommend coloring first at the raised edge of shape and then filling in.

  2. Stamp the sentiment over the embossed flowers.

  3. Use the yellow markers to color the butterflies and adhere to the embossed panel.

Don't overthink this, but take your time in adding color with your markers.
