They say you are never to old to learn... so it's a big thanks to the just us girls's Andrea who challenges us this week to do some 'faux embossing'.
It is such a fun technique, which at the same time gives you a chance to use some forgotten punches/dies!
I will definitely use it again in the future!
I kept the design simple to emphasize the postage stamps which works well with the sentiment stamp, in order to enter this to the cas-ualfridays 'lets get sentimental' challenge.
The sentiment says 'mailed with love'
Also entering :
come and get it challenges. ~ white on white
catered crop ~ ribbon
Thanks for visiting me today!
