Crafting Drifa: Let it Shine... part 4

OK, the show must go on :)

I just finished the class Let it Shine, toughed by Carissa Wiley.

I had the most fun times making the cards for this class, and while sitting in my craft space, brainstorming about the cards for this class, I started playing with my newest order from the lovely Altenew, mainly all the new washi tapes.

So, while playing with the new washi tapes, the cards almost made them their self LOL and before I knew, I hadn't made 3 cards but 4!

I will be breaking them up in 4 blog posts and here is number 4.

Misty Meadows

I started by covering my card front with the Misty Meadows Washi tape

It´s beautiful just like this, and could be card on it´s own like this, maybe with a sentiment...

But I decided to gold emboss a flower and some leaf on Vellum paper.

when using some embossing ink, it stamps clear on your cardstock/vellum and looks like this...

Then when you put the embossing powder on top it looks like this, before melting the powder with embossing heating tool.

When the embossing powder starts to melt it looks like this... it starts do get shiny, and that´s how you know if you have embossed every thing... if its not shiny the powder will dust off.

Here are my finished embossing flowers...

I then went on to cut them out, using my beautiful Mini Blossom die cutting machine
from Altenew

The Mini Blossom die cutting machine is just brilliant. It´s small but mighty LOL, the cutting plate is just 3" wide, but for most of the Altenew dies it´s enough. And the Mini Blossom is small enough to just sit at my table side, ready to be used.
