Hello crafty friends! I’m sharing CAS mini-slimline cards created with the Spellbinders February 2022 Embossing Folder Kit Club “Sketched Floral.” I used die-cutting, glimmer-foiling, and dry-embossing on these cards – three of my favorite techniques!
- Color white cardstock with Distress Oxide inks. I created versions with both warm and cool tones.
- Die-cut inked the panel to mini-slimline size using the largest die in the Precision Layering Mini Slimline A set.
- Dry-emboss the panel with the February 2022 Embossing Folder Kit Club. Remove the top texture with a sanding block to reveal the pattern in white.
- Using a die in the Fluted Classics Circles set, die cut a circle from the panel slightly above the middle.
- Create a card base sized 3.5 x 6.5 inches; create a mat for the dry-embossed panel from Onyx cardstock.
- Die-cut custom large sentiment with the Simply Perfect Alphabet from Onyx cardstock.
- Glimmer-foil sentiment from the Mini Sincere Sentiments on Snowdrift cardstock in black. Trim and position behind the dry-embossed panel, giving room for the larger letters.
- Glue Simply Perfect Alphabet letters above glimmer-foiled sentiments.

I spotted the ef in Spellbinders email but didn’t pay much attention. Now that I see it in action – wow! Just love what you did with it, Jean – love the sanding and the circle sentiment – so fun!!
The sanding is a fun technique and shows nicely with this ef.
Your ink blending is always so beautiful. The sanding technique is a great idea! Looks like magic.
