Embedded Embossing Technique….With Circles!

Embedded EmbossingYou’ve got to have circles when it’s “What Can You Do With A Circle?” month!  Today I have a fun technique for you and it’s even more fun with CIRCLES!  😀

For this card I punched a bunch of circles with my 1-1/4″, 1″ and 3/4″ circle punches and randomly adhered them to a piece of Basic Black card stock.  I then ran the black card stock through the Big Shot with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  That’s it!  Throw some ribbon on it and adhere it to a card!  It’s so festive!

One trick I always do when I use this embossing folder (most others) is that I always cut the card stock larger than I want the final piece to be.  This folder, especially, shrinks when you run it through the Big Shot.  Of course it doesn’t shrink evenly.  It shrinks more in one direction than the other!  This way it will always be the exact size that I want!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!
