I embossed multiple ways on one card. And watercolored and embossed on another card.
The first card was something I had pictured in my mind. Of course the final product isn't exactly how I pictured it, but I like it.
I first used my Silhoutte Cameo to cut a 'viewmaster slide' stencil. To create a stencil I use flexible cutting boards that I get from the Dollar Tree. It took me a few tries to get it cut out. I think I need a deep cut blade. I don't know if I can get one of those for my silhouette.
I used the stencil that I created and did some watercoloring with it. I then stamped the sentiment in the middle of a circle that I punched out. I used Versamark ink and embossed it with black embossing powder. I used a button brad to attach the sentiment to the card.
This next card has dry embossing and wet embossing:
The sentiment is embossed with white embossing powder. The background is dry embossed with a Teresa Collins embossing folder.
Thank you for stopping by the blog. Tune in tomorrow for some more embossing. I'm not even going to mention the Christmas card.
Have a great day and where ever you are - be there.

John 10:28 - 30 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. I and the Father are one.

Both fab cards, but I really like the first one. I love the colours. I have some watercolour paints, but never thought to use them on my cards.
