The SweetStamps challenge this week is anything goes with dry or heat embossing, I hope you'll join in the fun!
I did something a little different for my embossing, I had saved the negative portion of the Sizzix open scallop die which is dry embossed and decided IÂ’d put it to use here and give the card a splash of red, I like the results! Along with it is what I call my faux brads which I cut with a Cuttlebug Tiny Tags die and once again itÂ’s the negative portion of the die, they were cut from white paper that was sponged with the distress ink and heat embossed with clear powder. I've often coated the faux brads with a clear finish such as Paper Glaze, but wanted to meet the challenge requirements so I heat embossed. The small red dots are the negative portion of a Sizzix button die. All items attached with AleeneÂ’s tacky glue.
I used the 5/16” Perfect Ruler Mini from Perfect Paper Crafting to create the black border along with the Perfect Mat and an X-acto craft knife.
