CCEE1214 Use those Embossing Folders


Cindy is our hostess for the month of April.  This week she has challenged the CCEE Stampers to get their embossing folders out and add texture.  I used one from SU on my background panel.  I used this sweet image stamp from Purple Onion Designs.  I just love that plaid coat.....will have to do it in true red some day.......but this time my mind went a bit lighter.....to PINK!!!  The sentiment is from an old SU set.  I used my MFT die to create the doily sentiment circle.  Then I added a touch of ribbon and some large brads.  To my eye there is something 'missing' on this one, but I just couldn't figure out what I should add.....so it is what it is!!!!

Now go check out the texture the rest of the CCEE Gang used on their creations.  We would also love for you to play along.  Details on that will be found at the CCEE Blog along with the DT cards for this week.

She is certainly a cutie in that winter outfit. Good job with the colors and embossing. Of course, you topped it off with a gorgeous ribbon/bow.

So cute, Jo. I love this little girl and how you have colored her in pink and green. A wonderful double bow and a great layout.

Jo,
Your card is absolutely adorable and that image in her darling coat makes me smile! Pretty EF used and love your sentiment die too!

Fabulous colour scheme, Joanne. I like the one rounded corner, too, and I've always thought that SU folder gives such fabulous snowy texture.

She's a cutie, for sure, in her pretty plaid. She's snug as a bug and ready for all that falling snow in the background. Cute, cute card, JoJo, and beautiful bow!

Cute image! I know this is a challenge for embossing folders, but I must say that I love that doily die cut for your sentiment!
