Don’t miss the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder.  This stunning sunflower design adds a touch of nature to any paper crafting project. And, it lends itself to a variety of techniques. With this card, I showcase Stampin’ Up!’s two-tone cardstock and the sanding technique.

The technique is simple. Add card stock to the embossing folder. Roll it through your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Remove cardstock from folder. Lightly sand the surface to expose the white center.

Try this technique with other embossing folders and other two-tone cardstock colors. Choose from more than fifty colors.
