Xyron and Craftwell - Day Two and a Giveaway!


Day Two of the Xyron and Craftwell blog hop is here - and we are getting creative with Craftwell Embossing Folders all week long.  Today it is all about elegance!

Think embossing folders are just for paper?  Think again!  On her blog today Lori Williams shares a tutorial for creating these gorgeous metal flowers. Everything about these is so unique - can you imagine the possibilities?



Upcycling never looked so good!  Gini Cagle created this lovely apothecary jar using just a sheet of paper, a Craftwell embossing folder and some leftover embellishments. This would make a great (and inexpensive) wedding shower gift!



The Craftwell Design Team is hopping all week long on their blogs as well (see all of the links below) - get yourself entered for a set of TWELVE embossing folders!  Imagine the creativity! We're getting in on the fun with some giveaways of our own - leave a comment here on the blog and one lucky winner will receive a Xyron Mega Runner!  We'll announce the winner on our Facebook Page tomorrow - tune in every day this week for more great inspiration!

  15. I haven't tried cutting metal but I received a snowflake for Christmas that was cut from a soda can.
    It is so pretty. Love the jar. Would make a beautiful centerpiece for the dining room table.
