Exciting thinking about Christmas …….. this is the earliest I have ever started to make those Christmas Cards! Used the Cricut to DREAM BIG!
There are so many fantastic embossing systems out there ……… so I thought I would give the MAKE IT YOURSELF Cricut Embossing Kit a go. Having read a few bits and pieces but being a person who has to do it to see how to do it I gave it a go.
Firstly I had to work out what I was going to turn this great embossing folder into ……… well nothing would come to mind that would be an easy first trial so…… not being confident to cut it out on the Cricut and get a successful cut ……………………………..
I got out my ‘lollypop’ sizzix alphabet and away I went. Well this certainly was a trial and error. Not what I would have done if I had known what I was doing but now I do know!
Cricut Embossing Kit Trial
WELL IT DID NOT STOP THERE ……………..
After all that … WHY CAN’T I MAKE MY OWN EMBOSSING FOLDERS ……SO I DID!
These were all Sizzix images so now I will have a go with the Cricut now…… and I can mess up and have fun all with EMBOSSING ….MY WAY!
using cardboard as folder and embossed picture ….. beautiful deep embossed images – great result!
great results ..... deep embossing
