This week’s CAS-ual Fridays challenge is to create a CAS project with embossing – either dry, heat, or a combination.
For my card, I paired dry and heat embossing. I dry-embossed brown cardstock with an A Muse Studio embossing woodgrain plate which I heat-embossed with white powder for the tree trunk from the Paper Smooches “Autumn Groves” stamp set. I also heat-embossed the squirrel, acorns and banner sentiment. I first tried this card on an all-white background, and then on an off-white, speckled cardstock, neither of which felt (or looked) quite right. I have quite a few digital graph and ledger papers, so sized one from Splendid Fiins onto white cardstock, printed it, and stamped the leaves in a variety of Distress Ink colors.
Supplies: A Muse Studio woodgrain embossing plate; Stampin’ Up embossing powder; Splendid Fiins digital paper for graph paper; Stampin’ Up cardstock
Love this!!!
This is totally adorable, Jean! I just love the white embossing for the tree and the grid background. Thanks for sharing this with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
