Embossing For a Change

 Morning, my card today is using an Indigo Blu set which was a craft mag freebie years ago not been used for quite a while. I heat embossed the images, edges and sentiment in WOW silver embossing powder and a strip of striped  paper behind, layered onto white then black cardstock with a thin layer of grey card I found.

Please note if any challenges have digi images for prizes I am just playing for fun and support as I don't have a printer

  21. That's a gorgeous combo Carol. I love the black and white stripes in the background and she has embossed up beautifully in the silver. I did have that stamps many moons ago too but stupidly gave it away to my daughter-in-law who no longer crafts lol.

  27. What a great card and I have this stamp too! I love the embossing, something I haven't included in my cards for a while and yet I have lots of embossing powders to use, I must find the time to dig them out.
