Just Us Girls #623 - Trend Week

Our host Vicki has chosen this for the Trend Week at Just Us Girls.


There are so many things you can do with an embossing folder so there's no reason to not have a ton of entries in our gallery this week.  I hope you'll be one of them.


I tried a new technique with the Pressed Flower folder from Altenew.  I clear heat embossed the background by pressing VersaMark to the flat side of the folder before running it through my Big Shot.   Zigs were used to color the images.  

The Design Team and our guest JoAnn Burnham have cards to inspire you.  Pull out those embossing folders and make a card.  You may have a chance to be a guest designer.

Bobby... did you add a sparkly embossing powder when you heat embossed? Your card seems to just shimmer in this picture. Really lovely!

What a pretty background Bobby with the Versamark and I'm guessing glittery powder?!!!! That is a really cool embossing folder! Very pretty card!
