Time Out #305

 

hmmm a favorite card making technique?  I have so many!  But if you counted my supply of embossing folders, it is clear to see what I reach for when I want to make my crafty heart happy: 175 with the last addition from a sweet friend!

Thanks, Time Out #305 for the perfect opportunity for its first pressing!  Here is a closeup so you can see the wonderful details of this Spellbinders Molded Frame ...


Talk about perfect simplicity - it embosses a frame, a mat, and a central, raised
panel to embellish... today I used a second favorite: Layering, die cut florals.
This one is from The Greetery: Rosemal Reflections Details dies.


I can't wait to use it again, and again, and ... you get the picture!

Thanks for stopping by and sharing a bit of your precious time with me - and for all the get well wishes - thanks a million!

  7. What a fabulous embossing folder, and it's especially wonderful that it's A2 size... I looked it up. It will probably come live with me at some point. It provides the perfect framing for your beautiful flowers. You always use your two favorites so well!

  9. I saw where that frame won an 'award' from Spellbinders fans and I can see why. It can accent almost anything you decide to put into in like your beautiful layered flowers. Thanks for sharing your card with us at Time Out, Michele. I'm so glad you are back to your wonderful, crafting self.
