Hi, everyone! Today's Ways To Use It Challenge is 'Tantalizing Texture'....use at least three types of texture on your project....I used dry embossing, distressed edges, and hand stitching with linen thread. I needed a masculine birthday card, so I chose the mountain image from Keep Climbing; the small letters (cut out with a small square punch and popped up with foam tape) and the banners at the bottom are both from the new Pennant Swag Alphabet Set (all stamps by Our Daily Bread designs). Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

Love the twine stitching on this, and the rugged embossed texture which goes so perfectly with the image. Since I always struggle with colouring this one, maybe I need to take a leaf out of your book and just use it stamped with minimal colouring.

I always do love the woodsy, outdoor ones for men. super idea with the edging and the couple cute little stitches...must remember that one, I even have embroidery thread and a needle on my craft table...lol...now why would one think of using them together, instead of different things only...lol...silly me....love it here...TFS..:0)
