Faux Embossing - A fun stamping technique that you HAVE to try!

Happy Friday friends!! I have a new video for you! In today's 5 Minute Cards video, I show you how to get the look of an embossing folder with just paper and ink! The Faux Embossing technique is easy to do and you can turn any stamp into that raised, textured look that you would normally get with an embossing folder. It's such a fun stamping technique and it's a lot easier to do than it looks! I'd love to know what you think of this technique! Let me know in the comments, and I would LOVE it if you would subscribe to my channel! :)

Gina, Your Tapestry stamp and embossing folders are the most beautiful that I have ever seen. I have used them on cards, tags, candles, napkins, placemats, bags, and gift wrap. No matter what background I used, the outcome was gorgeous. thank you so much! This technique just takes it all to a new level. Brilliant!

[stampinsimplywithmaria]

As usual Gina, you blew me away with this technique! Hands down, you have a gift for teaching. I love that these videos are short, to the point (no rambling) and easy to replicate. Gina, thank you for bringing so much joy to my crafting life. God bless you, your family and your business 🙏

[carolestrawn]

That is just incredible. It totally looks like it was embossed. I am completely blown away by this technique. This is truly a trompe-l'oeil technique. Wow! That's a beautiful stamp, too.

I haven't been this impressed/amazed/perplexed since I first saw embossing powder melt 30 years ago. I kept putting my face up to the screen to "see closer, " like trying to figure out an optical illusion. Can't wait to try this!!

[renaeallen]

It’s beautiful! I tried it at home and used embossing powder for the lighter color on top. I thought it turned out quite nice!

[kathyharner]

Wow! This is a great technique I haven’t seen you do before, Gina!! Thanks for always expanding our skills!!

Love your 5 minute videos. Fantastic ideas in a time span more practical for my busy life, than the extended time videos.
