We are delighted to bring this series to you that includes a list of incredible designers including: Laura Bassen, Cathy Zielske, Shari Carroll, Nina-Marie Trapani, Yana Smakula, Nichol Spohr, and Heather Hoffman!
Throughout this series spanning March 30th – April 5th, you’ll be learning 5 unique ways each day to use our fan-favorite Simon Says Stamp 3D Embossing Folders. (Plus! Spoiler alert, you’ll actually have 7 DAYS of education with 2 bonus posts over the weekend!

Special SURPRISE!
As a treat just for you, while you’re being inspired on ways to use our embossing folders, we’re simultaneously having a very juicy (and rare!) sale to enjoy throughout the series!
The 5 Ways Showcasing Diagonal Embossed Strips + White Pigment Ink Magic are:
- Cut up different colored strips of colored cardstock and piece back together, ink textured side of folder with white pigment ink
- Emboss panel and cut up at a pivot point to the right, and use a tacky mat to ink blend on each piece; use a second white embossed panel to line up – gently use the white pigment pad to wipe over the entire finished panel for pretty highlights
- Use back (debossed side) of card panel, cut, color blend, use a background stamp and white pigment ink to add a very subtle and beautiful bit of interest to the background
- Start with a colored cardstock panel and pick a text background embossing folder. Use a white pigment ink pad to gently swipe on color to the top of the text to make it pop. Diagonally cut the panel and add a vellum and colored cardstock piece for added interest.
- Pick 3 colors that blend well together and blend a card panel. Create your own background by using a mixture of stamps in slightly darker colors as well as the white pigment ink for a pop of ghosting. Trim off a diagonal corner to leave an open space for a sentiment. Emboss over this background.
