My sister-in-law and I visited another Hobby Lobby Wednesday in search of more 40% off items. I came away with a Tim Holtz 3D Texture Fades folder, plus a few dies. I debossed a soft brown panel, trimmed to layer on a blush A2 card & adhered. I embossed a second blush A2 card, trimmed off a 1.5" strip and adhered. Added some spare leafy fronds I had on the craft table (look for them to be featured in Monday's post) and a sentiment strip - done!!
Re: the sentiment strip - I bought several packages of Taylored Expressions preprinted sentiment panels. They began offering them for use with their strips die which I own. Love the convenience!!
PS - we're doing birthdays at Die Cut Divas with Sunny Studio as our sponsor - would love to see you in the gallery! I'll be back on Monday with my regular DCD post & hope you'll stop back.
I'm also adding this card to Darnell's March NBUS Challenge since my embossing folder is new.
Thanks for visiting!
Love how this came out, Linda! The leaves against the textured cobblestones make a great masculine card.
