ABC Challenge - E is for...

Wow...it feels like ages since I posted a card for the ABC Challenge! Thank you for bearing with us, while we got ourselves in order...especially those of you who took the time to enter our DT call. It was a real challenge to choose just four of you to join our team, but we got there in the end...our new design team members have been revealed on the ABC Challenge blog...so make sure you pop by to see who'll be inspiring you to join us in our future challenges.

To get us all back into the swing of things, we have a nice simple challenge for you this fortnight:

E is for Embossing

This can be either heat embossing, dry embossing with a stencil, or using a folder or texture plate in a die-cutting machine...or a combination of any of these.

For the embossing on my card, I used a couple of Cuttlebug folders on my card...'Lace Tree' and 'Snowflakes'...on various finishes of silver card...I love the way the embossing really stands out on metallics. I added a few adhesive gems in the corners, and also in a few places on the tree, but kept it really simple, as I wanted this card to be all about the embossing.


We have a lovely prize on offer for the winner of this challenge...one of the new Cuttlebug folders...'Moroccan Screen':


And don't forget...our challenges are now fortnightly...so you've got plenty of time to join in.
The rest of the design team have created some gorgeous cards...so make sure you stop by the ABC Challenge to check them out.
