The year 2017 was the 500th anniversary of German theologian Martin Luther's Reformation. One of the travel guidebooks is titled "Motherland of the Reformation - On the Trail of a World Event", which has this special embossed cover as well as a bound ribbon bookmark.
I've been wanting to make and post these photos for a long time.
As far back as over one year ago, I'd wanted to visit Hamburg and Saxony (Sachsen), and so I went on-line to look for tourism information. I came across the web site www.sachsen-tourismus.de/en/ and much to my delight, they still print and mail paper promotional materials. The order menu is pretty long, and I thought they would be just some booklets and leaflets, so I ordered a bunch. A few days later, a big heavy parcel arrived from Germany via DHL (thy sent by courier!) with magazine-size books printed on glossy paper!
Well-done Tourism Saxony. I'm more than impressed. I'm sold!
Two embossed ATCs created for the Let's Swap ATCs group, theme EMBOSSED. Not for trade.
Rubber stamps, glue pen, embossing powder, ink, washi tape, card stock, butterfly gem, found images, and nuts from my husbands tool box for extra embellishment.
This is not a photo--it's a cleaned up scan of a vintage brochure detail from the Victorville, California, Roy Rogers and Dale Evans Museum. I have been searching for embossed leather designs to use in my digital collages. While not quite a full background, this is a nifty, traditional design.
I'll post the full brochure later. Alas, that museum has long-since closed and the Branson, MO operation has been shuttered as well. Not to mention that Trigger--the stuffed version--was sold at auction just recently. *sigh*

This is a T4L agree piece. Just don't resell it or package the original as your work.
A last card for the Hero Arts April challenge. I used one of the sketches. The frame was embossed with Platinum powder and the tulips were inked with Rose Bud, Sweet Plum and Bamboo Leaves Memento ink, masking off one half of the stamp.
I made a bunch of these backgrounds the other evening. It was made by dry embossing a piece of watercolour paper, rubbing it with a wax crayon and then paint it with watercolours. I wanted the middle panel of the sketch to be clear, so I embossed a piece of acetate and sandwiched it in between the two watercolour strips. TFL!!

Modifications, left off the last 8 row repeat on the foot and used the reverse shaping for the star toe as suggested on Mona's blog.
For the #MacroMondays theme for 2/12, we have been tasked with presenting anachronisms- old fashioned artifacts. Embossing pages with a stamp or creating book plates seems to fit the bill. These days if readers keep track of their actual books, it’s probably done digitally or on kindles.
Later I’ll post a picture of the embossing tool.

I was given a sheet of magazine scraps which had been applied to a background in a haphazard manner and was asked to use this as a source of inspiration!
I find this sort of challenge VERY difficult as I usually work to an idea, not an image.
After a mild panic I decided to gesso the whole page in an attempt to tone down the images and then I used it to create a folder which I then die cut and embossed.
I then grabbed the scrap bag and started to machine embroider images which started to leap from the page.
This is one sample.

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated
Something that I've been working on over Christmas and it's finally finished. They're for drawings/invoices/comp slips...that sort of thing. What's not to like about bumpy paper?
This embossed copper frame was of course inspired by Klimpt . I used glass paint containing alot of varnish to get the effect of enamelling .Bits of friendly plastic , glass pebbles and cerne relief add some texture to the finished piece.

I first heat embossed in white these beautiful flowers from SSS Artful flowers and then used my "real" watercolor paints to color them in. Then sentiment is from SSS Succulents set and the sequins from Pretty Pink Posh!
