Single layer of cardstock.
Emboss the heart over the top of the name.
Emboss the sides by turning the plate sideways and inserting it into the CB..placing the plate only far enough onto the paper to make the design you want..
on both side of the paper.
Scor-Pal the lines.
Add the ribbon.
Glue to a folded card.
Trim the card down so that it fits the embossed card front.
My Chinese DIL came yesterday, to her first American Easter Dinner and Easter Basket Hunt, (That's another funny story!) along with her cousin, Mengyuan, who has a Degree in Art History, and after dinner and a lesson with the Magic Colored Pencils, I let them loose in my Stamp Studio, with the Cuttlebug Folders. And did they have a GREAT time! This is one of the things Meng came up with for a design element, using the tapestry folder, the scor-pal and the personalized name on the front. I thought it was so good, I told her I was going to copy it! Thankyou Meng! We had a total blast and for once, the girls outnumbered the BOYS! YES!
I cut the card down a but to fit the size restrictions of the embossing folders from Provo Craft. I cannot for the life of me figure out WHY they do not make them in a full size to fit an A2 size sheet of paper.
