An Embossed Beauty


Maddie is reading a good book about Thank-yous in my creation for the newest Squigglefly Challenge (SFC0114): Emboss A Thank-You. I used one of the new images at Squigglefly called A Good Read Maddie by Cheryl Grant Alger. The set comes with this image, some books, and two great sentiments. I did a lot of embossing on this and I inked my folder before doing the main panel and ran the other two panels through the same folder with lighter and lighter results each time.

I hope you come play in this embossed thank-you challenge at Squigglefly - we would love to see what you come up with.

Hugz!

    So adorable, Nancy. I like your inked, embossed panels. Good idea on doing lighter ones, too.
    Hope you're staying warm.....probably not as cold there as my part of Bama, though. We are at 12 degrees and windy this morning. Yikes! It will be 5 degrees tomorrow morning. Bad wind chills and staying in the teens all day. Brrrrrrrr

    Love, love, love how you stacked your embossed papers onto your card. And the colors are awesome! I made a card using Cheryl's image as well! I linked to Squigglefly if you'd like to see it.

    The embossing pieces behind your pretty image look fabulous. Love the way each is a different colour!
