AYLI Embossing

 Hello, hello. I hope you are all doing OK. 

I am here today with my DT inspiration for


The prompt this time is your Favourite Embossing method.


I am an enormous fan of heat embossing and still watch in awe as the powder melts.

For this little collection of Christmas cards I used the plaid paper as my starting point. I think it it was quite possibly from Dovecrafts Little Red Robin paper pack.

I stuck the papers on the card blanks and had a rummage through my christmas stamps. This set is from Crafters Companion Sara Signature Scandinavian Christmas Collection (probably still available somewhere!!)



I die cut some postage stamp edged rectangles (a shameful unbranded purchase on ebay) and stamped away. I used red, white and green embossing powders that are probably twenty years old and they still worked brilliantly. More Christmas cards to go on the pile.

See you soon xx

Fab makes for the stash Sarah, I love it when the powder liquifies too! Plenty of rain so far this week, so no washing done, are we never satisfied?! ;)
