This is my entry for CAS87 to use the faux letterpress technique. I used the full CB folder, but trimmed the part I wanted.
For this technique, you simply use your brayer to ink the raised part of the CB folder. When you run it through your CB, the ink fills the debossed area. It can take a few tries to get everything to line up right, but it really is a neat technique.
The fabric trim I found at Joanns for $.10 yard. It is so cute for cards!
I finished it with a tiny gem to dot the I.
Thanks to the CAS team for allowing me to guest design. Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with.

This is SO great, Jenn!! Love the EF folder you used and the real eyelet trim is wonderful! Thanks for creating such a lovely sample for the rest of us to get inspiration.
