K1-1416 - Thank You

K1-1416 - Detail of colourful embossing powder

K1-1416 - Detail of the doubled embossing technique

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

The technique I used for this card I've seen some weeks before in a YouTube video of Jennifer McGuire. She called it "embossed impressions" I think. 

It was a bit tricky and needed some tries until I was almost happy with the result, but these heat embossed thin lines on the die-embossed paper look great, don't they?

Yes, you read it correct! 

First I impressed the paper with a cutting die (and a silicone matte) with VersaMark on the cutting-edges (just there and nowhere else!), then I put embossing powder over it and heat embossed this to melt into the impressed lines. How cool is this?

For my card I used a left-over colourful mix of embossing powders (all from Zing!) I also heat embossed the sentiment and some little punched circles with the same powder.
To get a bit of "real" colour I put a strip of red paper beneath the cut out sentiment and cut it again.

I combined rough and smooth papers, white and (very) colourful pieces, outlined flowers and a bold sentiment, impressed areas and raised ones, glossy dots and matte paper ... 

So many contraries but in the result it is a simple and unagitated (stress-free) CAS card!

K1-1382 - Lächeln

Heute poste ich endlich mal wieder eine Karte!
Die Basis entstand bereits während der letzten Online Card Classes - Spring Card Camp, aber erst jetzt kam ich dazu, sie fertig zu stellen.
"Wer schön sein will, muss Lächeln", dazu Regenbogen-Farben und Schmetterlinge - alles zusammen in einem  CAS Style - ich bin absolut happy mit dem Ergebnis!

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

Today I finally post a card again!
The base I created during the last Online Card classes - Spring Card Camp, but I just find time to finish the card now.
The translation of the German sentiment "Wer schön sein will muss Lächeln" is "Who wants to be beautiful, has to smile"!
The sentiment combined with rainbow-colours and butterflies - all together in a CAS style - I'm absolutly happy with this result!

The background beneath the front-layer is made with Distress Oxide Inks and an iridescent embossing paste. I scored the paper with lines and then diecut the letters and just used the negative part to cover this colourful paper, so the open areas of the letters shine bright in rainbow coloursthrough the open shapes!
From a rainbow strip I cut off I punched out all the small butterflies and adhered them adjacent to the letters. On a piece of white cardstock I stamped the sentiment and fussycut it out and adhered it to the card.

K1-1348 - embossed daffodil -II- / Uniko Brand Ambassador Post

Like I mentioned in first post of today, I was inspired from

Jennifer McGuire who showed this technique on the first day of the current Online Card Class "Spring Card Camp".

K1-1348 - embossed daffodil

This is an extra long class - started Saturday, April 11th and last until Thursday, April 30th, Wrap-Up day is Thursday, May 7th. 
On every one of the 20 days you get one video with intructions and tips to create two (different) cards in almost one working process.

Two embossed daffodils

Some more information about the technique you can find in post of my first card or in the post on the Uniko Blog.

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

The second card is made with an invers impression of the embossing panel.

I softly added some Distress Oxide inks with a blending tool. The colours outside of the expressed lines makes such a soft colour effect!

This card is very simple and a bit plain right now. When I know who will get it, I think I will add a banner or rectangle layer with the sentiment in the bottom third of the flower layer.

Probably with the Simply Said Blocks from Uniko in the colours of one of the two Oxide Ink colours I used for the flower.

Here you can jump to the first card I showed today.

K1-1347 - embossed daffodil - Detail

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

When you use an embossing powder what doesn't "want" to layer thick enough - don't give up! Use this first try, colour it as usual and make a card out of it.

And then make a second try of the layering with another embossing powder (and maybe another brand of paper).

My first one was clear powder from Ranger - and it stayed flat. Why? I still don't know!

The second try was with a white powder from efco (one of my oldest powders in the box) on a different paper. And this turned out great!

I will use it some more times to get impressions and then I will use it as "normal" embossed image on a card - so nothing is wasted! :-)

K1-1347 - embossed daffodil -I- / Uniko Brand Ambassador Post

Was very silent here on my blog for so many weeks - sorry!
But the Pandemic with all the stuff happening during the last weeks kept me away from my crafting table...

Home schooling, new organisation of our everyday life (with 6 person in the house almost 24/7 - that costs lots of nervs sometimes!), long phone calls with family and friends, start of the garden season with all the work outside (planting and seeding), all the time you need to stay half-way informed about all the things happen ouside of the "little safe world" of our house...

And yes, my creativity was gone for a while with all the bad stuff in the newspapers every day from all around the world...

Hope my creative mind is back now!
And I hope I'll find some time to craft - primary schools will be closed for minimum two more weeks here in Brandenburg and kindergarden probably until August (poor Milo, he is missing the time there so badly!)

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

Easter time is over, but in my garden the daffodils (the translated German name "Osterglocke" is "Easter bells") just started to bloom. So I decided to show you some cards with these beautiful spring flowers from Uniko today!

K1-1347 - embossed daffodil

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

two embossed daffodil cards

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:
The technique I used was a first try for me.
Jennifer McGuire showed it on the first day of the current Online Card Class "Spring Card Camp".

This is an extra long class - started Saturday, April 11th and last until Thursday, April 30th, Wrap-Up day is Thursday, May 7th. 
On every one of the 20 days you get one video with intructions and tips to create two (different) cards in almost one working process.
:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

The technique I used may be a bit tricky in the first try, but when you managed it successfully, it's easy to repeate and re-use the panel(s) you created many times!

You make your own embossing panel by layering a heat embossed image 10(!) times - layer over layer. The use of a stamping tool helps to get the best possible same-spot stamping.

This thick heat-embossed image allows you, to use it like an embossing folder.

For best results I had to experiment a little bit with my cutting machine and the layers I needed for the embossing. 

At the beginning I was a bit too careful, cause I was afraid to break this heat-embossed image with too much pressure (but everything went well - it looks still the same, ready to use it again).

For my Cuttlebug I used 1x A-plate + 2x B-plates + 1x silicone embossing-matte + the created Embossing Panel + Paper/Cardstock to emboss in + additional Cardstock-Layers. 

The additional Cardstock-layers depended to the thickness of the watercolour paper I used. 

Watercolour paper has some positive properties to use it with this technique. 

The first one is, you can moisturise it without any risk before you start to emboss - the impression of your embossing panels (or folders) will be better on dampish paper than on dry paper!
The quality of watercolour paper is often softer and thicker than most other papers - also a benefit fort the embossing.

And last but not least you can use watercolours after you have embossed it!

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

The first card I made with an impressed embossed flower.

I coloured the impressed lines of the flower with Zig Real brushes and added some water for a good colour gradient to the areas beside.

A still missing (small) sentiment will be placed right between the green ribbons on the right side of the flower or (when I'll use a bigger one) on the inside of the card.

I hope I can use it as a birthday card and don't need many get well cards soon. (Nobody should be in the situation to need one during the next weeks! So please stay save!)

For my second card I used a second embossed daffodil - this time the inverse impression. Hop there to see the full card or see it on the Uniko Blog.

Hier die dritte Karte:

K1-1176 - Emboss Resist - Hallo

K1-1176 - Emboss Resist - Hallo

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

Gestartet hab ich mit komplett weißem Cardstock.
Zuerst hab ich die Oxide Inks mit der Smooshing-Technik aufgetragen.
Dann über die Stencil die Embossing Tinte aufgetragen und mit transparentem Pulver embosst.
Anschließend die (gesäuberte!) Stencil gedreht, damit die Dreiecke in die andere Richtung zeigen, und zwischen den embossten Dreiecken plaziert. Erst mit den Blending Tools passend zur vorhandenen Farbe auf dem Papier noch mehr Farbe aufgetragen und (nach dem Reinigen der Stencil!) wieder Embossing Tinte und Pulver. Diesen Schritt hab ich nochmal wiederholt.

Jetzt mit dem schwarzen Stempelkissen das komplette Papier bearbeiten! Seltsamerweise kostet mich das jedesmal, wenn ich es mache Überwindung, warum auch immer?!?
Jetzt noch die überschüssige Farbe mit einem Tuch entfernen. Da es noch eine ganze Weile bei Berührung nachgefärbt hat, hab ich eine hauchdünne Schicht MicroGlaze aufgetragen. Seither kann man es anfassen, ohne Spuren an den Fingern zu sehen.

Der Rest war einfach: Das Sechseck ausstanzen, mit Vellum hinterlegen und den feinen Vellum-Rahmen aufkleben. Das doppelte Hallo ausstanzen, beide Teile einfärben, embossen und zusammengeklebt auf die Karte kleben.
Bei dem hellgrauen Papier, das als Zwischen-Layer eingefügt ist, an der entsprechenden Stelle ebenfalls ein Sechseck ausstanzen (der Einfachheit halber etwas größer als das auf der Front) und es flach auf die Kartenbasis kleben. Dann den Vordergrund mit 3D Tape auf dem grauen Papier befestigt.

I started with white paper.
First I applied the Oxide Inks with the smooshing technique onto my paper.
Then I used the stencil with the embossing ink and added clear powder to emboss it. Then I replaced the (cleaned!) stencil in different direction and added more colour with my blending tools. Cleaned the stencil and added embossing ink again. Heat ambossed two times with clear powder.

The next step is hard, every time I use this technique! I applied the black ink directly with the black ink pad on the whole panel!
After I removed the excess colour with a towel I got still black fingers... so I added a thin layer of MicroGlaze. Now it's perfect!

The rest was easy peasy: diecut the hexagone, put a piece of vellum behind and adhere the fine vellum-frame. Also diecut the sentiment, colour and heat emboss it, layer it and glue it on the hexagone.
I put a layer of light gray paper between my cardbase and the front layer. To get a clear vellum hexanone, I cut a bigger hexagone out of this gray paper, then adhered it flat onto my cardbase. The front is adhered with 3D tape.
