5. Apply gold embossing powder to this stamped image and heat set with an embossing gun. ▶ watch 26:30
6. Use nesting circle dies to cut out circles from the pink cardstock, creating a pattern with some circles cut out and others left as solid areas. ▶ watch 31:00

8. Run the taped cardstock through your die-cutting machine to cut out the nesting circles. ▶ watch 33:45
9. Layer the cut pink piece on top of the gold-embossed white piece, aligning the designs so the gold embossing shows through the die-cut circles. ▶ watch 34:30
10. Apply 3D foam pads to the back of the die-cut piece, using multiple pads and cutting some in half to support delicate details and prevent sinking. ▶ watch 35:00

Consigli dalla puntata

• Both pieces of cardstock must be exactly the same size to create the illusion technique where the embossed pattern shows through the die-cut circles.
• Don't be tight with your 3D foam pads; use plenty to prevent your design from flopping or sinking.
• If you don't have nesting dies, you can use square or rectangle nesting dies instead, or create a matte layer with a different cardstock colour.
