The Spellbinders Head in the Clouds Embossing Folder (SES-028) is a whimsical background builder from the Open Road Collection. This 4.25" x 5.5" folder features a playful pattern of "puffy," overlapping clouds. It is smartly designed to create a dreamy, atmospheric foundation for cards, making it an essential choice for hot air balloon scenes, superhero "flying" cards, or serene "thinking of you" designs.
Key Features:
Puffy Cloud Design: The design features soft, rounded cloud outlines that fill the entire panel. It is multi-directional; use it as a standard sky, or flip it vertically to create a bubbly "steam" or "smoke" effect for coffee mugs or train engines.
Standard Single-Sided Depth: Unlike a 3D folder, this provides a crisp, uniform impression that is perfect for ink-blending.
Pro Tip: Emboss on white cardstock and use a blending brush with light blue ink around the edges of the clouds to make the white puffs pop off the page.
Letterpress Potential: This folder is great for experimental crafters. Apply a soft blue or gray ink to the flat side of the folder before running it through your machine to create a soft, inked-sky background in one step.
Platinum Machine Sandwich: To get the best results in a Spellbinders Platinum or Platinum 6 machine, use this standard sandwich:
Platform (A)
Embossing Folder (with cardstock inside)
Two Cutting Plates (B) (or the specific Embossing Plate if using the Universal Plate System).
High Versatility: Perfectly sized at 4.25" x 5.5" (10.8 x 14.0 cm), ensuring it covers a standard card front from edge to edge.
