The cards are absolutely exquisite. I wonder what water does, since unlike cardstock, vellum isn’t porous. Unless it is? 🧐 And wonder if regular embossing folders instead of 3D would mean less cracking, though if you hadn’t pointed it out, I wouldn’t have noticed.

@amyswares 9 ай бұрын

It did have a small difference with the water 🤷‍♀️. I would imagine reg ones would put less pressure. However I have embossed with regular embossing folders and thinner vellum and still had cracking. So I think it depends mainly on the thickness of the vellum and the actual design. Ones with longer lines or more geometric long features in the design tended to crack for me. Thanks for watching friend.
