CFC68 Embossing



CAS-UA Fridays CFC69 It's the first Friday of the month which means it's time to search for a new guest designer! Hurray! The challenge is to emboss - dry, heat or a combination of the two, it's up to you! This week's winner will join the team as an honored guest next month and win a $25 gift certificate from an awesome sponsor: Simon Says Stamps 
I found these tiny vintage flowers among some thrift shop finds, I used alcohol markers to add some color to the faded petals and a dot of Glossy Accents to the center to shape them. I love working with craft card stock - here the white velum embossed butterfly, the vase and the border shelf look really fresh. Pretty and simple. 
It's always a good idea to have a sympathy card on hand. Starting with this lovely green floral background paper I added a wood embossed strip of solid green trimmed with a die. The silver sticker sentiment is layered on dark brown torn edged paper layered on craft stock, tied up with a twine bow                                                                                                 
Thanks for you interest. Wish me luck...I would really love to win and place my order for Simon Says Stamps. Be well ~ Carole
