Watercolor Embossed Notecards at Crafts Unleashed

These fun watercolor embossed notecards have a pretty letterpress effect that is achieved easily with watercolor markers and embossing folders.

Have you guys ever used embossing folders? I have used them just a few times before (like here), but I was challenged to do a fall craft with them over at Crafts Unleashed this month, and I decided to try something different.

I love letterpress (I’ve mentioned that before), and I wanted to try to get a kind of letterpress look with embossing folders. After some experimenting I came up with a technique that uses watercolor markers and embossing folders to give you a pretty watercolor-slash-letterpress look that I really like.
