Cut Out pressure embossing technique & Men's Suiting digital freebie

Posted on 13:05 by Unknown
Today's card uses another pressure embossing technique
I'm calling it cut out pressure embossing for lack of a better name :)
It gives you a quick one-layer (very easy to mail) card:

pressure embossing cut out

(Well almost one layer: there are patterns adhered
behind the cut out embossing)

The patterns...

Men's suiting is hot right now (brings back
memories of wearing second-hand men's suit jackets,
vests, n hats... in highschool & feeling so hip!) heeheehee

Sooooh, I thought you might like some free digital
papers of men's suit patterns. They're made in Photoshop
each section of pattern measures 4 1/4" x 2 1/8"...



Dark Men's Suiting patterns:
(fits 8.5 x 11 inch paper)

Lighter Distressed Men's Suiting patterns:
(fits 8.5 x 11 inch paper)

(light PDF is linked here on Flickr)

I used the patterns on the card above to place
under cutout pressure embossing
(The embossing folder is from Stampin' Up Manhattan Flower)

Areas of the embossed cardstock were
cut away with an Exacto blade:



I
t's very easy to do:

1) Emboss some cardstock
2) Cut out sections with hobby blade
3) Stick paper(s) behind cut out areas
4) Mount it on a card

Clickable blogger thumbnails:


There's a full pictorial for how to do
cut out pressure embossing here:

(and general embossing pointers)


Hope you're having a lovely day,



P.S. The patterns are fun to print on canvas:

fedora & ties on printed canvas mel stampz

These are some menswear items that I cut free-hand
then pierced & stitched onto cardstock

(The suiting patterns print lighter on Claudine Hellmuth's sticky back canvas making
the dark pattern more dark gray than black- which is great if you love gray like i do).
