Want to learn a new embossing folder technique that adds realistic texture to your handmade cards? This shimmer relief paste hack creates stunning dimension using supplies you already own.

In this tutorial, I show you how to use shimmer paste with an embossing folder to create a detailed honeycomb background that looks layered and intricate — but is surprisingly simple to do.

This technique works with so many embossing folders and instantly elevates your cardmaking.

In this project, we also:

• Use layered stamping with ink blending for depth
• Add subtle heat embossing for contrast
• Incorporate specialty cardstock for richness
• Finish with an elegant wax seal

If you love embossing folder techniques, texture, and advanced cardmaking ideas, this one is for you.This video was originally shared during a livestream and has been edited for easier replay viewing.
