Coloured Fern Card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Posted on November 3, 2026October 23, 2026 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are sharing colouring techniques with embossing folders. I have used the Fern & Flora 3D Embossing Folder to make my card.

Colours used to make this card are:

I created the coloured fern card using the following supplies:

Early Espresso card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored on the long-side at 4⅛”
Lemon Lime Twist– 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White – 2½” by 1¾”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside

I embossed the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card using the Fern & Flora 3D Embossing Folder.

Using Sponge Daubers I added ink to the reverse of the embossed panel. I used Lemon Lime Twist, Coastal Cabana, Garden Green and Shaded Spruce inks. The Sponge Daubers add the ink unevenly to the image and I really like the distressed effect it gives.

Next, I dragged my Early Espresso ink pad across the coloured reverse of the panel, love the way the colours pop against the dark colour.

The whole piece was glued to the Lemon Lime Twist panel before it was mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.
