The Spellbinders Cross My Heart 3D Embossing Folder (E3D-102) is a stunning, high-definition texturising tool from the Love You More Collection. It features an intricate, all-over pattern of interlocking hearts in various sizes and styles. As a 3D folder, it utilises variable-depth technology to "sculpt" the paper rather than just indenting it, creating a romantic, multi-dimensional relief where some hearts appear to sit much higher than others.
Key Features:
Variable-Depth Sculpting: This smart technology produces a professional, artisanal look. For the most dramatic "Cross My Heart" effect, it is a pro tip to lightly mist both sides of your cardstock with water before running it through your machine. This softens the fibres and allows for a deeper, crack-free impression.
Large Slimline Format: Measuring 5.50" x 8.50", this folder is highly versatile. It can effortlessly cover a Slimline card (3.5" x 8.5"), but the pattern is designed to look equally beautiful when centred on standard or 5" x 7" card fronts.
Romance & Celebration: This is the perfect choice for Valentine’s Day, wedding invitations, anniversary cards, or "just because" love notes.
Mixed Media Potential: The smooth, raised surfaces of the hearts are ideal for:
Ink Swiping: Drag a pink or red ink pad across the top of the folder to colour only the raised heart motifs.
Gilding Waxes: Apply gold or pearl wax to the heart edges for a luxurious, shimmering finish.
Universal Machine Compatibility: Works with most manual die-cutting machines.
Spellbinders Platinum Sandwich: Use the Universal Plate System (PL-127) for the best results: Platform Base (A) + Cardstock inside Folder + Adapter Plate (D).
