The Spellbinders Whimsical Skies 3D Embossing Folder by Vicky Papaioannou fills your background with movement, depth and storybook atmosphere. Its continuous circular swirls resemble a gently moving sky and add visual interest even when embossed into simple, single-color cardstock.
The design works beautifully as a subtle background or as a main feature of the card. Keep it clean for an elegant tone-on-tone finish, or highlight the raised areas with blending inks, metallic wax or dry brushing to reveal the curves and different levels of the embossed pattern.
Its generous size allows you to create backgrounds for several card formats and select a different section of the design each time. It coordinates with the houses, florals and companion elements from the Whimsical Village collection, while remaining versatile enough for dreamy, abstract and mixed media projects.
