Torn Teal Embossed Poinsettias by Angie Cimbalo

Hello and welcome! It's Angie here today and I have a fun torn technique card for you today featuring the new beautiful "Perfect Poinsettia 3D Embossing Folder" that also comes with dies. I didn't use the dies on this card but plan too for another card. Here's a closer look at the card:

I dry embossed both a teal and two white A2 panels and then on the teal one, I lightly tapped white ink on the raised areas. Here's a super close look:

Next I tore the top and bottom edges off the teal one and frayed the edges a little for a more distressed look. I glued the teal one to the white one and then tore the top along the same angle. I added a little teal ink on the white torn edge. I didn't want the bottom white edge torn so I cut it higher than the teal one so you can see that layer on the bottom.

Next I glued the other white panel to the card front and then lined up the torn part so it was seamless despite the color difference. I added gold paint pen to the flower centers and around the teal panel. To finish it, I added a white sentiment tab and then rounded some of the corners of my finished card. Here's one last look:

I hope you like my card for today! It's a simple technique and a great way to stretch the looks you can get from an embossing folder. Thanks for stopping by and see you next time!
