Flutter By Wednesday - "Emboss It!"

Thanks to all of you who joined in last week's Flutter By Wednesday challenge! Today starts a new one. The theme this week is "Emboss It!" Use any kind of embossing that you would like and play along! Simply link your card to the Flutter By Wednesday challenge blog.

 This stamped and matted butterfly was in my stash and after I made the card, I realized it would be perfect for this challenge:) I simply embossed the border around it with a Nestability and added the sentiment from Papertrey Ink.

 Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

    Beautiful butterfly, Lynette - so summery and pretty! I love the understated style of your cards - so sophisticated!

    Thanks for your lovely comment - glad you've enjoyed following our progress! Still a way to go but the end is now in sight. Mum's stuff in on Fri, and tomorrow a busy day for me, trying to get as much ARTHaven stuff in as possible before I have to tackle her stuff. All go, isn't it...

    As for Chrome, I've used it in the past but prefer Firefox. I shall return there once they've got it working properly again!

    What a beautiful card Lynette! I love what you do with embossing! I still haven't tried this framing technique, but your creations are incredibly beautiful using it!

    Very pretty CAS card. I don't think to use the Spellbinders dies that way but it creates such a neat frame!

    Beautiful card! The embossing is fantastic -- why don't I ever remember to use my dies like that? Hum! Anyway, the clean white is a wonderful setting for that lovely stamped image. Beautifully done!
