Designables - Cutting and Embossing Folders


I LOVE these cutting and embossing folders from Marianne Design - so nice to be able to do it in ONE step! If you've been watching, you've seen several cards made with this particular folder.  Once I got it, I just HAD to play with it! 

The cut and embossed design is backed by a red piece of paper that was cut with my Celtic Knots Reflection Die from Cheery Lynn, creating that lovely red and white border (since this is adhered to a white card base).  The red heart is cut with a Nestability die from Spellbinders, as is the white one.  Liquid Pearls adorn the edges of the red heart and the stamping is personalized with a couple of stamps I made with my stampmaker.


The inside is quite simple.  As you can see, a bit of the border is carried into the inside.  The stamp is from a Fiskar's set.

Beautiful...where did you purchase this Marianne folder?

Thanks, both of you. I got the cutting and embossing folder from Sweet Stamps, but Paper Wishes has also started carrying them.
