Debossing and Traditional Embossing – Card 1 of Notecard Set
CTMH Pear, Black and White Daisy It must appear that I don’t like patterned paper because I make so many cards without it! I truly do LOVE patterned paper, but I have been on a plain cardstock binge lately. All the cards that I am posting this week are only made with three colors of…

More Embossed Flowers – CTMH Just For You
I love how this card turned out! It all started because I wanted to make a video to show how to use embossing in different ways to create some fun and cool effects for card making and scrapbooking. The very bold colors of these flowers are what “makes” this card, in my opinion. Petals are…
