Our Top 15 3D Embossing Folder Card Ideas

We are so delighted to have released more 3D embossing folder designs throughout 2022! Adding texture and dimension has always given cards extra detail. However, using 3-dimensional embossing folders gives paper an even more defined, textured finish to create stunning crafts.

This gorgeous Flower Frenzy embossing folder is filled with different blooms and leaves to add to cards. The tightly packed floral pattern makes this filled background a beautiful addition to cards for birthdays, anniversaries, spring themes, and even more!

Another one of our favorite cards uses this Orange Peel Quilt embossing folder. This subtle geometric pattern is bold enough to add texture to the background of cards without taking attention away from the centerpieces and sentiments. Best of all, this 3D embossing folder can be used in all themes of card making.

The Holiday Floral Swag folder is a necessity to have while crafting for the holiday season. The pine needle, leaf, and berry border adds dimension to cards. It also coordinates well with dies and sentiments along the empty center space, or on top of the border like in this example.

This card gives a little bit of retro vibes from its background, and we love it. The elegant Tile Reflection 3D embossing folder is perfect to pair with any whimsical design such as this floral glimmer here. Mix and match with your favorite die-cuts and embellishments to make beautiful geometric crafts.

The beauty in card making and crafting is that anything is possible, the only limits are your imagination. We feel this especially with this project using the Beautiful Blooms folder. The layering effect used in the card allows for the embossing folder to be both the centerpiece and border!

This adorable thank you card would be left unfinished without the Leafy 3D embossing folder in the background. Pairing the leafy pattern with the small bird is a fitting theme and is not only stylish, but minimal with an eye-catching centerpiece.

The Tufted embossing folder’s design gives a softness to cards. Mimicking the pattern along chairs and other furniture, this embossing folder’s fabric-like appearance is a great pair with virtually any type of die-cut, sentiment, or glimmer.

Circle Illusion is another geometric pattern 3D embossing folder that is extremely versatile. Not only can you emboss using different paper, but you can also incorporate different colors to highlight texture. This card’s gradient from hot pink to pastel pink is so vibrant and fun!

The diamond pattern on this embossing folder adds dimension and flair to this thank you card. The minimal designed bird and leaf dies on this card lay nicely on top of the turquoise Beveled Diamonds background. The bright turquoise embossed cardstock really makes the card pop!

Another tile patterned card we love is this Tile Mosaic thank you card. Unlike the previous tile inspired embossing folder, this design is more dimensional and includes many dips that add shadowing detail to the card!

This Knock on Wood design is absolutely perfect to pair with any floral, animal, or nature-like embellishment. Card make the cutest crafts for any season and occasion using this woodsy embossing folder.

Although simple, the Corrugated 3D embossing folder can be used vertically, horizontally, and tilted at any angle. This makes the already adaptable design work to create patterns in any direction. It is perhaps one of the most suitable designs for any occasion!

This spotty and dotty 3D embossing folder is so much fun to use in crafts! Puff Dotty adds a bubble-like texture to any craft to make it dimensionally unique. Just like this example, adding more circular and round patterns to this design pairs very well!

Give someone a Flurry of Snowflakes when using this 3D embossing folder. The delicate snowflakes provide just enough texture but don’t take away from other die-cuts and embellishments added to the card.

The layered circular pattern of this 3D embossing folder creates a kaleidoscope of other shapes! Look closely and see diamonds and shapes that look almost floral. Adding color to and gradience to Origami Folds makes it fit wonderfully with any die-cut, such as this stitched “hi.”
