Industrial Vibes | Tim Holtz Sizzix March 2025

Tim Holtz has once again gone back to the vault with his latest Sizzix release. In my latest video I’m sharing another card I made using some of the new Tim Holtz Sizzix dies and embossing folders. I’m using a combination of Distress products including Distress Inks, Distress Oxides AND Distress Paints to create an industrial vibe on both the background and the die cuts.

Enjoy The Journey | Tim Holtz Sizzix March 2025

Enjoy the journey and the Tim Holtz Vault Embossing Folder release! I don't know about you, but I LOVE embossing folders! There are SO many ways you can use them and they are always perfect for adding some interest and texture to your card.

Tim Holtz just released a set of 5 embossing folders that are based on designs that were released in the past. These new folders have been updated to have a little more dimension than the originals, but if you happen to have the originals, you might not need these. However, for those of us (myself included) that didn't get them the first time around this re-release is a wonderful opportunity!

To create the background I used the Vault Airmail Embossing Folder. I embossed a piece of white cardstock and then rubbed Fired Brick and Faded Jeans Distress Ink Pads over the embossed design. Quite honestly I was just playing around and wasn't expecting to use this as a card background, but when I was finished playing I really liked it! I then finished it off with some layered of cardstock and die cut pieces that added to the theme. 

If you would like to see the difference between these new embossing folders and the originals, make sure to CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO.


Here's a look at the 5 Vault Embossing Folders that are now available!
