Can You Handle the Pressure - Twist - Layers

  Hello Friends, thanks for stopping by today!

We have a new challenge starting today over on our new Can You Handle The Pressure Challenge Blog and the TWIST theme is ...

Layers

Remember, the twist is optional but you MUST use an embossing folder on our projects to qualify for the prize.  Heat embossing is also permitted but only in conjunction with an embossing folder.

 Here's what I've created to inspire you today.  


OMG!  I guess I didn't realize I had SO MANY awesome embossing folders that I could put together and create a 'layered' card since I have a variety of designs and sizes.   Some of these small & narrow folders I've had for probably at least 15 years and RARELY use them.  Today's theme made me 'think outside the box' and this is what I came up with.
 
I've used the following folders . . .
(Full background) Creative Expressions 'Fanciful flowers 3D Embossing folder by Sue Wilson 
 
The three smaller folders are by Provo Craft - Cuttlebug (very old).
I matted the top three panels with black card stock just to make them stand out a bit more.
 
Challenges to share in:

Creative Knockouts Challenge #554 - Lots of Layers (ends 9/17)
As You Like It Challenge - Favorite: Layered or Flat (& why)
I love both designs but the layered look really appeals to be because of the dimension achieved when layering.  So much more for the eye to capture.  (ends 9/17)
Let's Craft & Create Challenge #223 - AG + Lots of Layers (ends 9/30)
Crafty Calendar September Challenge - Lots of Layers (ends 9/28)
 
I do hope you'll come check out our challenge blog and play along.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
I appreciate it more than you'll ever know!!

As always . . .

  3. Wow, this is next level layering of your embossing! I love the Sue Wilson folder (which I have), and those skinny flowers are the cutest! So many possibilities for that one. There's nothing like texture when it comes to a mostly all white card, and this one displays that beautifully!
