Embossing kit


This months kit includes a template and two embossing tools. We are using the coredinations cardstock which has a different color core than the outside. To do the layout, choose a section of the template you want to emboss and place it on the front side of the cardstock. Turn it over and emboss those areas. You can rub the embossing tool on waxed paper to make it glide easier on the cardstock. When finished turn it over and sand the embossed raised areas. A neat trick is to take a glue dot and place it on the head of the embossing tool and then stick a small piece of sandpaper there. Your embossing tool has now become a small sanding tool! I used the black coordinations as the embossed accent strip and the grey and black coredinations and white bazzill bling as backgrounds. It is hard the see, but I also embossed hearts in the title.
