Cut.. Stamp.. Emboss. That’s the order that works best for me. On today’s set of cards the shaped borders were cut first with a couple of different dies from SU’s Adorning Accents collection.
Next the borders were stamped with the coordinating stamps for each cut design. And lastly the borders were embossed with the coordinating embossing folders.
And before you go… just wanted to show you a fun paper rainbow that my granddaughters made. Their mom took a picture of them next to the display. So fun!! Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!

Love your cards and blog. I wanted to share with you that instead of using the stylus like you did here, I put the cardstock back in the folder I used first and just squeeze it with my fingers and it pops it back out.
Two lovely cards. Great use of the black and orange for this cheery card. Love the scallops and the flowers in each one. Great use of the edger die on the second one.
Wow, what gorgeous card. The details are fabulous. Love the embossing and wonderful crisp stamping and coloring!
The twins are getting so big. Love their rainbow!
Oh Susan, those cards are just awesome!! Not to mention the rainbow your granddaughters made!! They are getting so big – who’s putting the fertilizer in their shoes?
very pretty cards, I just love those stamped flowers along the cut and embossed border, such pretty colors in each card!
Your granddaughters are too cute and what a neat St. Patty’s day display 🙂
Beautiful borders and wonderful stamped flowers! I love the brad accent on the 1st, and the double embossed border on the 2nd looks gorgeous! Your twin DGD’s are adorable, and I love their pretty rainbow 🙂 So cute
Susan, I love both cards, especially the little bee ones! Your grand daughters looked like they were having a blast 🙂
I have been eyeballing these toys from SU! Now I will probably have to get them LOL!
Both cards are gorgeous, Susan!!! The bee card with the black and peach is sooo striking and I love the shape of the second card..the embossing is such a beautiful detail!!!!
