My card for this latest challenge is based on one which I spotted on Lesley's blog recently where she had used a large stamp as a background. Seeing this reminded me that I have a very similar embossing folder from a few years ago so this is what I used for my card. At Allsorts the theme is **anything goes with an option to create your own background** so I've inked the embossing folder and stamped trees and a deer before transferring the ink to a piece of white card by running it through the machine. All that was needed to finish the card was a sentiment. This way of using embossing folders was one which I'd almost forgotten about but it is a relatively quick way of making a card. Thanks Lesley for the inspiration 😉.

Great background and a wonderful use of that EF. Love this winter scene!
ReplyDeleteA fantastic card and scene that you've created Val. I remember seeing this done with stampin up stamps some time ago (at least three years) and had forgotten all about it until now. Thanks for the reminder.
