[@megjournals]

Love this page and how delicate it is! Thank you for sharing your talents with us Kate! ✨

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi Meg, thank you so much. I really appreciate being included in the line up. Thanks for inviting me. 💛🩵

[@MeredithHenning]

Love the yellow Kate, so many fun ways to include embossing to your journals!! So glad you were part of the challenge, always enjoy your videos! Have a great time on your camping trip! xoxo

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thank you Meredith. Yes, so many ways to emboss and use it in our journals. Loads more than I touched on here. Thanks for watching. 💛🩵

[@oheck5570]

That yellow color is so soft and mellow. Very pleasing. I really like the final result.

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi 👋. Thanks so much. I’m so glad you like it. Thanks for watching 🩵💛

Being new to this craft i had no idea what to expect for a 40 minute video on embossing. I was sad when it ended lol! Loved seeing you use the embosser, didn't know they existed! Back years ago i had the heat embosser and tons of colors, i got rid of it eventually but kept all my pretty embossed envelopes and cards. After all these years now I know how I can use them! Thanks for this very lovely and soothing video! 🤗🌟

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi there. I know it was a bit long but I wanted to cover lots in case there were people new to junk journaling watching. Thank you so much for watching and I’m so glad you enjoyed it. It’s amazing what you can find around the place that is embossed or gives the embossed effect. Happy crafting 🩵💛

[@suefryer2991]

love the yellow Kate, I also find hard to use the colour Yellow but, wow love this page. Also thanks for all the embossing demos.😍🙂

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thank you Sue. I’m happy you like it. Thanks for watching 💛🩵

[@wendyseddon6029]

The struggle is real...... glad you came up with a solution that looks very appealing.

Hi Kate , love the embossing. 🌸

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi Joan. Thank you so much 💛🩵

[@popokicat]

Thanks very much for including some ideas of us who don't have an embossing machine - but it was really fun to watch you using yours! What a fun piece of kit - and I imagine that was really helpful for people who are new to having one the way you tested out the different papers. Thank you for a lovely video; I'd love to see how your page turned out! Is it on instagram? You also have a very soothing voice ☺

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@popokicat hi there. The embossing machines are fun to have but also there are so many more inventive ways to include embossed elements in our journals. I will do a full flip through of my Junk Journal January when the month is through. I will try and remember to show the full page in my next video, I’d forgotten that I hadn’t completely finished it at the end of the video. Thanks so much for watching 💛🩵

[@popokicat]

@@PixieKDesigns You're very welcome! And I look forward to your full flip through as well to see the completed page :) Yes, I agree it's fun to come up with more inventive ways to interpret the prompts which is why I appreciated your video so much

[@JustJulesM]

I am not a yellow fan either but I L💛ve this page!! 💛💛💛 The scrapbook paper design is so pretty. Adding the golden business envelope was perfect! Thank you for showing so many embossing options. I didn't mind the length of your video. It was so full of information. New subscriber. ☑️ 👏🏼 Now going to check your othe JJJ videos to start. I've not yet started my journal.

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@JustJulesM hi Jules thanks so much for watching and subscribing. Welcome to my channel. I was surprised by how much I ended up liking the yellow too. I’m happy you enjoyed the video. Happy crafting 💛🩵

Hi there. 😅. Thank you so much. I really appreciate that 💛🩵

[@denisecope]

This was a lot of work! Thank you for sharing all the different types of papers and techniques. It was super helpful to me. I have a big shot and I’ll be able to use it more easily now. Plus, I loved the tracing paper!!

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi Denise, I’m so happy you found it helpful. Thank you for watching and happy crafting 💛🩵

[@wendyengland2530]

I love how this turned out! Thanks for the ideas. I'm one who doesn't have a Big Shot - I really want one and have been "shopping" for one. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi Wendy. Thank you. It does feel like a big investment but it is one tool I use a lot. For both embossing and die cutting. Well worth the money 💛🩵

[@lenawarelius4195]

Thank you for sharing your embossing knowledge 🙏 I’m waiting for my Big Shot to come 🥳 lots of love from a snowy arctic Norway at -18 degrees Celsius today 🥰🌼🌺🌸

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@lenawarelius4195 hi Lena, you are welcome . Enjoy your big shot. -18 is crazy cold 🥶. Thanks for watching. Hugs. 🤗 Kate

[@judygundlock4035]

Great explanation. While I have done a lot of embossing I have never tried it with water, so I'm going to try that and see if it helps with some folders that cut through the paper. I love that little rose folder that you have that runs along the edge.

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi Judy, I’m glad the video was helpful. The water helps a lot, I think it helps the fibres stretch. However some papers are just too thin or fragile for some folders so it’s always a bit of a juggling act getting the right amount of pressure for the right folder and paper. Have fun playing and thanks for watching 💛🩵

[@marilandreth6166]

I loved your video today. Thanks for encouraging us to pull out our embossing folders and machines. I had such a great time making some things to use today and in the future! Also, I never use yellow either, but I must do a spread in yellow now!

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi there. Thank you I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. Embossing papers and adding them to journals creates such a lovely effect. I really surprised myself with the yellow. Happy crafting. 💛🩵

[@susangazawaypapercrafting3749]

[@thescrapbookingphotographe3607]

Great watching this page come together Kate, and all the different papers you embossed. I was quite surprised at the very clear difference between the wet and dry embossing on the tag. I’ll be taking the time for that extra step in the future! Thanks for another great tutorial. Enjoy your holiday.

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@thescrapbookingphotographe3607 hi Lynda, thanks so much for watching. I’m glad it was helpful. Happy crafting 💛🩵

[@lilynz.l3]

The yellow turned out really pretty Kate! Love the heat embossing too. I sometimes do spray water over before running it thru the machines but sometimes I tend to forget and that's when cracking are tearing occur 😅 Have a lovely holiday up north ❤❤

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thanks Lily, I’m really happy with how the yellow turned out. Thanks for watching. We had a windy few days up at the beach but it was so much fun. Now to Auckland for wedding prep 💛🩵

[@lilynz.l3]

@PixieKDesigns it sounds like you're having great fun there and now more fun to come...your daughter's wedding ❤️ Congrats Kate, and the lovely couple 💕

Yellow is not a color I gravitate towards either, but I love your page. When you placed the photo with it, it looked wonderful! I like watching you think through your options.

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi Erin, thank you. I’m glad I tried something a little different colour wise for me and I do like how it turned out. Thanks for watching. 💛🩵

[@patriciacampillo-eu3ex]

Another idea would have been the back side as the opposite design of the rose embossing?

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi Patricia. Oh yes great idea. Thanks for watching 🩵

Thanks so much. Yes the water certainly makes a difference. Fabric was one substrate I skipped. I love embossing that too. 😅 thanks for watching 🩵💛
