Do you have a favorite embossing folder? Tell us which one!

[@sharonpimento3257]

I have the one you used my favorite 😍. I usually use it after I make my strip scrap card, and then I use the clear sparkling pen just on the blooms.

[@irenebaxendale8367]

Must get my boxfull of folders out after this. Thank you

[@villagecardandcrafts]

Thanks for watching! Have fun 😊

[@iluvmyboba]

[@villagecardandcrafts]

Thanks so much! 😊 glad to have you join us!

[@eagerhands1]

I must confess that I used one for the first time TODAY! Exploding fireworks on a 4th of July card. Thanks for your tutorial.

[@villagecardandcrafts]

Glad I could help! 💕

[@mountainscrapes]

Ooh, been looking for a July 4th one. May I ask who makes them? Thx

[@lynnehill8635]

Thanks for this video! My random thought was hmm, must check my distress oxides and see if I need to ink them up. Lol. I love this technique, and the colours you used were lovely. They suited the cards so well. ❤❤

[@villagecardandcrafts]

Thank you! I totally need to spend some quality time reinking the rest of them. 💙

[@mystichris1543]

Great cards and ideas - thank you so much for sharing. Love shimmer sprays, but have issues with the big drops. Have chosen to just add flat sequins or drops on top to partially mask them. In sets of three, of course! Thanks again.

[@villagecardandcrafts]

Thanks for sharing! 🩷

[@sandratheprocraftinator945]

12:36 I was gonna ask what’s the difference between that spritz and regular his other sprays, so basically it’s like tattered angels sprays 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@villagecardandcrafts]

Hello! I don’t have any Tattered Angels sprays, but a Quick Look would say no Distress Spritz are not the same. Spritz is a clear liquid that has the Distress color suspended in it. The shimmer is the color, not the base. I hope that makes sense.

[@sandratheprocraftinator945]

@@villagecardandcrafts oh ok thx

[@alisonender]

Could you use 2D (normal) embossing folders please? Ax

[@villagecardandcrafts]

Yes, you can use 2D folders! Of course, the depth of image will be less; but I'm sure they would produce beautiful results. Have fun!

[@beckyeberts7791]

I have Atitst-Tac and the dots adhere to the top page and then some of the glue dots end up on the top of the die cuts. Have you had this problem?

[@villagecardandcrafts]

No I cannot say I have that issue at all. I would ask if they are stored near a window or area with heat or humidity. That may cause that.

[@beckyeberts7791]

@@villagecardandcrafts I ordered them from Amazon. They were that way from the beginning :(
