Sweet Stampin' Guest Designer - Embossing

Guess what?!  
Photobucket

Yup! I'm the Guest Designer at the fabulous Sweet Stampin' challenge blog this month! These ladies are so talented, so kind and...just plain awesome! I'm honored that I was asked to join them this month and am excited to create projects for the challenges they have lined up for us this month.

This week's challenge is all about embossing. Heat emboss, dry emboss...just use some form of embossing (and rubber or digi stamping) and you're in. My card features a dry embossed die cut mat shape and a heat embossed sentiment. Check it out!


Isn't that the sweetest sentiment? I hope you'll stop by to visit the Sweet Stampin' DT to see their lovely creations...and that you'll play along too!

I love the different textures of this card... the gingham fabric flowers works well with the honeycomb! I like it!

Another fabulous idea to emboss before die cutting your label.

Now the wee bee is just cute as a bug should be! The amazing red gingham flowers with the sweet yellow buttons totally rock this card! Wowzers!
