 Hello everybody, welcome to my channel, it's Eva from Bohemian Crafting and today I'm coming to share with you a technique which I kind of came up with in last two weeks. I'm practicing this technique and I really love this technique and I do believe it can make amazing project, amazing background, cards, inserts, tags, very beautiful. And if you will feel after your stamping and embossing, if you will feel the background and you will see that these stamped images are not embossed, but everything around is embossed. That's quite amazing and I really think that this is awesome technique. It does have quite a lot of work right from the start, but you do feel things right from the start, but then you have it done forever. So, come to have a look how I have created these awesome images and I hope you will enjoy this tutorial. For creating stamping in your embossing effect, first you will need to create masks of your stamps. I'm gonna do today all masks for this stamping collection or stamp collection from Tim Holtz. This is Eccentrics and for making my masks or templates, little templates, I'm gonna be using this backside of old paper pad because it's nice and thick. So I don't need to glue so many layers together. If you don't have chipboard like this, use some old cardstock and stamp the image on your old cardstock and then make few layers of the cardstock and always fussy cut out around so you will make a thicker layer. Like here with this, I did stamp once, I used one old envelope, craft envelope from that brown craft paper and then I glued, I did fussy cut out my stamping, then I glued it back on that envelope and did fussy cut out again. I do have two layers of same cardstock here, but I would like to make it easy for myself. That's why I'm using a thicker chipboard today. I do have few stamps here, stamped on that thicker chipboard. I also stamped full stamp here on the backside of the cover. I can fussy cut out each of these and I will have, you know, nice beautiful labels and I will have also templates if I would like to do collage, stamped collage. So now I'm gonna fussy cut out each of these stamps. I do have prepared my masks or stencils, templates, whatever I will say in that thicker chipboard and also kind of like normal cardboard, so they are much more thinner. I do have my embossing folder, I do have stamps prepared here and here's bunch of envelopes and folders and small envelopes and this cute specimen window. I used Tim Holtz dies to cut all of this stuff out from my collage papers and I used Tim Holtz dies just because this is Tim Holtz stamps, so I was like, oh okay, I'm gonna use it all together. First, I'm gonna do some stamping and then we will do some embossing. So I'm gonna take this envelope and choose some stamping and I do have these, so this will also help me to see how I can stamp. I'm gonna use my stamps, you know, to plan what I would like to have, where I would like to have it, then I can stamp it and then I can emboss the way I want. So I'm gonna plan a little bit my stamping and layering of these stamps. I did my little planning here and now I would like to stamp it and here you can see that I have these templates. I'm planning also stamping. Once you stamp the image, you are using these templates to cover that image and stamp next image. So here I can see how in the end I would like to have that stamping, which means the full image is the first you are stamping and will be in the full size. That's this one. Then I do have these two images, this one and this one. These two images are going over that first one and I'm gonna be using these templates also cover my stamping. So to have these little templates or masks or stencils, it's perfect for this type of collaging and it helps so much to planning your collaging and collage stamping and do your layers. So first I'm gonna stamp the number five like this. Now I'm gonna use my template from the simple cardstock, that thin one and I'm gonna place it over that number five and I can get a hand stamp and this postie stamp and stamp these over. The number five. First I'm gonna go with this long strip. I'm gonna flip it this way and I'm gonna do stamping over the number five here and I'm gonna take the hand stamp. I can put this over this one just to make sure I don't mess up that stamping. And I'm gonna go with the hand stamp over these layers. Now I'm gonna uncover all of these and we do have perfect collage stamped. Now I can take my embossing folder, place my embossing folder around the image the way I want it. So I wanted to have embossing from this fold. I'm gonna pre-fold the envelope the way it would be. So it will be like this. This will be over it. So I would like to have these stripes from this edge. This one I would like to have flat as it is and the rest would be embossed. And I would like to have this kind of broken pattern coming with the finger here. Which means I'm gonna go this way like this. Now I can emboss it. And I know I do have so many new newbies in junk general craft here on my channel. So for those who don't know how to work with this machine. I do have a video with how to embossed. And I do explain a lot about this embossing machine. So I will link it down below. Go to have a look. So now I do have embossed and stamped image but I do have embossing effect around all of these images. So right now it's coming time for my figure templates. And this is really very easy. It is kind of repeating few steps. But it's really easy once you do have your templates which you can use on and on and on over and over again. So once you do have your templates you are pretty much settled with everything you need. So I do have these my templates. This is from that thicker material. And I forgot to say I also cut it from same material these little strips. I will place them around my envelope just to make sure that they will level this top plate. So it will don't push down my embossing effect where I don't want to push it down. So now I can start with this and deboss it. Just place my template on the image. Place this one over these three leveling strips around and we are going to deboss. If you don't feel pressure here just change the plates. I do have here this embossing plate. So I'm going to change it for cutting plate. So this is my cutting plate. It's usually with this greenery background with explanation all of that about die cutting. But mine is very much used. So I do have it all white. And I'm going to go back and if I will feel that it's yet. It does make pressure. So I still have embossed effect here and here that it did flatten that number five quite a lot. I can go one more time and I can put a little bit more over that number five. So here I'm going to place also that second one that thin one and I'm going to go one more time through to my embossing machine. Okay. So I still have nice and embossed effect all around and number five is getting really flat and it's not that much embossed like before. And I'm going to do same with other images as well. So here and here I'm going to place my templates. I'm going to put these strips around and run it through to my machine. And I think my hand a little bit moved as you can see it did move a little bit. But the rest is nice and flattened. So I do have the stamping in the flat areas. And I do have that embossing all around. Now I can take distress ink. And as I have started with Tim Holtz I'm going to continue. I do have your vintage photo from Ranger Tim Holtz. And I'm going to be using that for distressing all this piece. I think I'm going to take my distress ink and go very light hand all around. And with that distress ink I'm going to pop up all these embossed areas. And as you can see I am distressing with that color everything embossed but my stamping stays clear without those lines and without those dots. That's because we did flatten them down again after embossing them. So now I can put my envelope all together. So first I have fixed circles using brass. And now I am able to glue it all together. So first I'm going to glue the sides. So I did glue the sides and this bottom. I'm going to add that string. And I do have my first little envelope with embossed around the stamping done. I'm going to continue with my file folders and do kind of similar thing. This file folder is going this way. And I would like to have the part, that top part, this top part embossed. But then I mean embossed with those stripes. And in that or under that embossing effect I would like to have maybe some of these. So first again we'll be planning what I would like to see from that stamping. How I would like to see it. So I can use my templates to make a planning done and create my little stamping collaging. So here the hand will be stamped just like that. Here I can see fully that number three. So I know first I'm going to be stamping number three. Then over that I'm going to place this template and stamp the strip. And under that strip I will stamp the hand. That's easy stamping. I do have number three stamped. I'm going to place over that number three my little template from that thin material, not from that heavy cart stock. And over that I'm going to stamp this strip like this. Now I can take hand and stamp the hand here underneath like this. I'm going to keep my templates here. Now I can take my embossing folder, put my embossing folder the way I would like to see it. And maybe here actually. No, no, no. Right over it. This way. So I'm going to emboss my little file folder this way. I do have my embossing done through to all these images. And now same like before I'm going to take my templates from the thicker material. And here I don't need to do it here in this strip. I guess that's pretty much flattened by the embossing folder. But I'm going to do it here where is number three and on the hunt. And again, I'm going to take my leveling strips here, which will help me to keep that the rest of the embossing on the right shape in the good shape here, here. And maybe I can place those thin ones on the top just to make sure there will be a little bit more pressure than on other sides or other places. Embossed. Or debossed right now. And we can have a look. So I still have embossed effect around. And as you can see, the hunt is without those dots. The number three is without those stripes. So now I can take distress ink. And same like before, I'm going to be using a vintage photo distress ink and I'm going to add this dressing all around and show that distressed areas. And as you can see the number three and hunt, they are staying untouched by distress ink, which is perfect actually. And that is the debossing or embossing around the stamping stamped image. I'm going to do all these and I will show you how it can look like. And here is few of my creations with that embossed effect around the stamping. I really love how they did turns out. It looks amazing, I have to say, especially with those Tim Holtz stamps and this chandelier embossing folder. It's just amazing. And these dots around the stamping, they do look so good. So this is the technique I've been trying for the last few days to make it better, look better, look at that. It's really gorgeous. And it does look amazing with embossed effect around the stamping. So this is my little creation. I added some few little things. I did sewn this pocket into that file folder. I saw that long time ago. I think when this collection was released, I saw it on Tim Holtz, you know, the showcase with those stamps and dice. So there was a file folder like this. I do remember that. With sewn this pocket inside. And I really like that. And the other one I made with those two little frames because I really think it's a great idea and it looks amazing. I did use my background papers, which I do have for my collection Dada style collection, Dadaism style collection, which I'm now working. And these are actually stamped images we created with my Patreons. It was lots of fun. I have to say I'm trying to use my stamps more and more. And we did create it kind of like collaging with the stamps. And I have to say that this collaging with stamps and stencils, it's amazing. It does look amazing. Those frames you can see here, they are from Planner stencils. I found on Amazon beautiful collection of slim stencils. They are sold out now because I think my Patreons just run out that website. So I'm not going to even share the link because it's sold out. So my Patreons went there. I'm happy to help. So this is my sharing for today. I hope you did enjoy it. I hope you will try this kind of like stamp collaging and then embossing and debossing. So have fun guys. Pull out your stamps and have fun. And remember you just it is lots of work right from the start. You need to create those templates, but you are creating them just for once and then you can use them on and on and on. As you can see, I did use them like a lot today. Pretty much same images and I did use them on and on all the time and they are still working really well. They are debossing all these images and I really love how it looks. I'm so happy I can distress embossed effect and it doesn't go to my stamp image, you know, so that's what I like on that. So that's my sharing for today. Thank you so much for joining me today.
