On page 18 of the new 2024 January to April mini catalog we have a very cool new hybrid 3D embossing folder! Do you know what a hybrid 3D embossing folder can do? You can use the embossing folder and the dies separately just like normal dies and folders but put them together and you get both in one pass through of the machine! And what could be more versatile than a word folder! With “thank you”, oh happy day, thinking of you, hello, love you, you make me happy, with sympathy, celebrate, get well and Just Because! So this hybrid cuts and embosses all at once for you!
I made a pretty card to show you this awesome new product! The first few photos are of the hybrid folder itself and the words cut and embossed on Basic White cardstock.
Measurements:
BASE: Basic White CS 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Basic White layer: 4″ x 5 1/4″
Gold Foil scrap for the hybrid embossing folder
Place three strips of Tear & Tape across the short end of the 4″ x 5 1/4″ layer.
Peel the release paper away.

Place a bunch of Golded Leafing in a plastic resealable container and put the Basic White layer at the bottom underneath the gilding. Rub the gilding onto the tape strips until the stickiness of the tape is gone and the gilding is on all sections of tape.
Place the 4″ x 5 1/4″ layer into the Layered Florals 3D embossing folder and run through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine.
Place a scrap piece of Gold Foil into the Thoughtful moments hybrid embossing folder and run through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine.
Adhere the 4″ x 5 1/4″ embossed layer to the card front. Adhere the sentiment with mini Stampin’ Dimensionals, place on the lower left hand side of the card front.
Add Brushed Metallic dots to the card front. I noticed that there will still fragments of the gilding on the card. If this occurs take a bristled paint brush and brush the loose gilding off the card.
I love this look and the hybrid embossing folder is so cool – try your hand at making some of your own artwork today – one stamp at a time!
Happy Stampin’
