Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - Embossing

Please scroll down for my Penny Black Saturday DT post :0)

 *************************************************

This week is Bea's turn to set the theme of the Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge, and she has chosen:

'Embossing'
(This can be wet or dry)

I've gone for dry embossing...'cos I loves me Cuttlebug! ;0)
I love the effect you get from using the embossing folders on plain white card, so used my 'Snowflakes' folder to make Christmas card...well, there's only 6 months to go! The image is 'Christmas Bunnies - Robin' by Lili of the Valley, which I coloured using watercolour pencils, then added some sparkle with 'Crystal' Stickles. To add definition to the layers, I distressed the edges using my scissors.


I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:

    I love white on white cards Helen, especially when they're embossed. I love your Penny Black card too, it's really sweet.

    Sorry I haven't been past for a few days so it's been nice to catch up with your lovely cards.
