[@andygranick]

I didn't think I needed these embossing folders until I see this.

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

You are too kind, Andy! THANK YOU!

[@maiingan07]

We should know better by now, shouldn’t we? And yet, I keep hitting the button to watch a new technique or even an old one, neither are exempt. One thing going for us is they’re fun. Wishing you an amazing crafty day 🎈

[@nurseratchet8566]

FabUlous cards 💖🧡💛💚💙💜

[@violascrafttherapy9390]

This technique works on all embossing folders

[@jmspegel]

The OCD in me is cringing when I see the blue ink on the cream handled blender brush.... lol

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

Lol I needed another brush! I typically try not to do that because I like having brushes color coded to the inks I’m using but I needed another and cream or black was all I had! Haha!!!

[@heatherradford1994]

Nina thanks so much for this video. I've just lost my mojo lately but after watching this Im going to get my inks and folders out and see what happens. Yr cards are just so beautiful so how could I not be inspired. Big thanks xx

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

Awww your comment means so much to me, Heather! Thank you!

[@KoiPonggo]

Beautiful cards! Love all of them. Thank you for sharing 💕 Love all that sparkle!

[@gloriaalvarado2553]

Love your choice of colors and embossing folders for these beautiful cards!

[@coolstamper]

LOVE these BEAUTIFUL cards!!! 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸

[@lindataylor863]

Like Heather, you have inspired me! I just wish my craft items were organized so I could create some fun items too! Losing my mother-in-law was so hard for my husband and unfortunately he brought home a lot of her things and they're stored all over our house (mostly in plastic containers) including my craft area. Now I can't find anything I want to craft with. I've had to learn to be patient with my hubby through this as I know he'll eventually help me get rid of some of his mother's stuff/crap, but I just have to bite my tongue and be patient! Please God, help me with this issue!!!

[@karenmclaughlan9128]

Hi Nina beautiful cards 😍 I would like to try this technique with 3d embossing folders. Can I still spritz cardstock with water to stop card from cracking. Do I spritz the card panel before or after the colour plz x

[@lisahortoncrafts]

Beautiful cards :)

[@christinekostis164]

Wow! Just seen your video! Must try this technique. It's so pretty! Thanks from Christine in London,UK. X

[@franciscaraffo9703]

I enjoyed this video today, showing blending techniques. Thank you for sharing your knowledge

[@patriciatate6433]

This is a beautiful technique, I am going to have to purchase some more inks that's for sure. Thankyou, your work is superb.

[@Pebblesmas]

Love your cards, but thought you were going to teach something new about embossingfolders and ink blending 😪

[@cheri6905]

WOW - what BEAUTIFUL cards, Nina! I am going to watch this again, as I was a bit distracted with other activities going on in my craft space. I want to use my embossing folders, as they have been neglected for a while. I also have some new 3D folders to play with!

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

Oooo!!! I LOVE IT!

[@monicamariacap7147]

I loved! Thanks for share! Greetings from São Paulo.

[@lindaberg9161]

Hi there...is it possible to show us the machine you use to cut all the things and to run through the embossing folder I am so new to all this and I dont know where to start or what to purchase first.....thank you so much God bless.

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

These cards are gorgeous. Avery fun way to mass produce. Thanks for sharing.

[@cynthiatuczynski9491]

Very pretty cards and fabulous ideas. Thank you for sharing 😊🤗

[@dtilt1]

are the inkpads you use really juicy? it blends so smoothly for you. mine don't seem to especially if I use those type of blending brushes

[@stonechops]

I wonder what using vellum instead of paper would look like? Will the ink smear on vellum?

[@sharonpeterson2378]

Love the colors that you chose! Beautiful cards!

[@hilarygreek7830]

Awesome cards! Thank you for this video!

[@kellyvigliotti8465]

[@kimbawilliams1026]

Hi Nina, these are so gorgeous OMG, do you have a video that shows me how to run the embossing folders through the die cutting machine please? Thank you

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

Hi Kimba! I show how to run it through a Platinum 6 in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/onqYgYqHds93pK8 and in this video that I did for Simon Says Stamp, you can see a more detailed explanation of how to run them through a machine: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3PYeH9pbLelrNk Hope this helps!

[@michelegourd5742]

What lovely cards!! I will have to give this a try!!! Thanks for sharing!! Hope you are doing well!!

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

I am, thanks for asking! Hope you have fun trying it out!

[@lindarutgers5015]

Do you use just oxides for thos method? And what do you use for cleaning your brushes and folders??

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

You can use other inks, but I prefer the look of Oxides most on this because they have pigment ink in them and that transfers the smoothest. I just used water to clean my folders and brushes afterwards. :)

[@alexistroncoso9710]

So beautifull!!!

[@marianhillier4847]

Loved them. I will be trying this technique for sure.

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

Woot woot! Have fun!!!

[@jancastle77]

BEAUTIFUL!!!!

[@patriciapuchelt4663]

The moment when you thought you didn’t need any more card supplies but then you see this!

[@sandywest4299]

Beautiful cards! Thank you

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching!

[@juliebergacker5680]

Awesome 👏👏👍💕

[@cecmorris072]

Very nice but the sentiment covers the beautiful card front.

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

You could always change the placement of the sentiment! I liked in the center for some of them. :)

[@KWicksable]

Cool technique that you’re do very well. Beautiful cards!

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

Thank you! It's a fun one!

[@christineperry2077]

So inspired by this Video! Will watch a number of times - my only addition would be to SLOW down in Talking and Presentation. Speaking and moving too fast =Frustration. All in all, I truly look forward to playing this video again and putting these wonderful ideas to practice. :0)

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

Thanks for the feedback! :)

[@kathyfleming]

Christine Perry, you can adjust the playback speed on KZbin videos to make them play faster or slower depending on personal preference. Tap the 3 vertical dots on the top right of your screen while watching a video. Roughly half way down is the adjustment for playback speed. Give it a try!

[@rosalieridle9970]

Thank you! I love this technique that is new to me!

[@NinaMarieTrapani]

You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful!
