At a recent class I was asked by my card crafting ladies to share how to use the two types of Embossing Paste that Stampin’ UP! offer. It is a fun product to work with and while you can use any of the ready made masks/stencils available in the catalogs, it is fun to make your own! I used the Split Card Texture Dies to create mine then added some heat embossing on vellum and a little vintage’ing as well – so today’s card is packed with techniques!
