Heatwarming Hugs and Press On

This card was made with foil cut out accents. The paper is the Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper. I embossed the steam swirls in the corners on the front and the stamp set is Press On. The card stock base is the standard 8.5 x 5.5 scored at 4.25.           

Witchy Card and Pumpkin Patch

 

    I have been working on some things and I was asked to make a witchy card by a friend. The pumpkin patch card was supposed to look different but it looked so childish to me. I showed a friend of mine and her 2 year old son really liked it so I finished it so I can send it to him. I got a whole bunch of stamp sets that I am really excited to work with. Wanted to be festive since this year is going to be different with the holidays. 

I used clear embossing powder to make the spider webs in the witchy card. Which I thought was perfect for a spider web. I used a masking technique to get the kitty behind the pumpkin on the inside of the pumpkin card. The cards are 4.25 x 4.25. 

First embossing attempt

 

After finally getting my desk in the bedroom for my crafting I started making some stuff. This was my first attempt with embossing. I embossed the word "Cocktails" and the lines on the inside. As you can tell I have sprinkles of the powder around it. The key to keeping that off of your paper is to FLICK the back of the piece of paper with your fingers. A really good flick. The heat gun does curl the paper a bit as you heat it but it doesn't effect it too much. This was my breakout card with the new things that I got recently.
