Hi everyone, a card for the Cuttlebug Challenge where this week the challenge is to use your favourite embossing folder. Well I love all of my embossing folders but the Swiss Dots is the one that I use most often so I've used it today to emboss my white card blank. I also embossed a line above and below the swiss dots. The image is one of my digi-stamps 'Open Rose' soon to be available at Sketching Stamper Digi-stamps hopefully from next week and is coloured with markers. I distressed the edges of the image and mounted on red card and dimension tape over the white card blank. Added the Elzybells sentiment, red gingham ribbon, tiny heart button and sponged gently around the edge of the card with vintage photo distress ink to finish. Hope you're enjoying the weekend. TFL.Materials:
Image: Sketching Stamper Digi-Stamp 'Open Rose'
Colouring: Promarkers in Red, Ruby, Pastel Yellow, Moss Green, Pine, Ice Grey 2, Ice Grey 4, Ranger Distress ink in vintage photo
Embellishment: Cuttlebug Embossing folder 'Swiss Dots', Scoring board, red ginham ribbon, tiny heart button, craft knife to cut slit for the ribbon in the image panel, dimension tape.
Back soon,
Chris

Oh my goodness!! Now I am gobsmacked missus!!! WOW this is so exquisite! The rose is so beautiful - funny I had some of my flower stamps out this morning as they have been so neglected with all the "cute" stamps that I seem to be using all the time. Thank you so much for the inspiration sweetie, I'm off to get them back out again.
