Background Emboss (Letterpress?)

I got so happy when this turned out so beautifully! It's not from a letterpress machine!! Well, I watched some youtube tutorials so I tried this out using embossing folder and emboss the background with color! Gorgeous! Planning on sending this to my best friend!

Letterpress and Embossing

Trying out letterpress using embossing folder from Couture Creations, I won a package from them awhile ago and there are a total of 10 embossing folders in them and other super addictive goodies such as blings and pearls. Loving them very much and I've been creating more lately!

Just want to share some cards with you, here are some cards I made:

I think the black and white both looks pretty elegant together.

This is how it supposed to look like using the embossing folder.

Another reversed embossing using same embossing folder. Either ways they still look really good! Love the pattern, I wanted to try the letterpress with coloring so to add more dimensional look to the embossed pattern but I don't have the tool in hand. Maybe next time?

Skewer Frame

Made a frame using skewers

Turquoise and Yellow

I think I'm into the combination of this two colors lately (or bright colors), Turquoise and Yellow, together they just pop!  I made a card in previous post using almost similar color scheme, only the flowers are in Turquoise color so I thought of coming up with this card! I simply adore the bright colors!

Butterflies are stamp from Teresa Collins, stamped using Tsukineko Momento dew drops and embellished with pearls.

Sentiment is from Hampton Art, purchased it from Michaels!

Paper from Core'dinations, Fancy Pants Designs. Love the core color revealed after sanding it down with sanding block.

Clean and Simple at CAS-ual Fridays

Created this for CAS-ual Fridays' Clean and Simple Challenge (CFC108), love their stamps! I only have one set that I won from a giveaways which is the Only You set.

Here you go:

The challenge's requirement is to have some material such as fabric or felt on the card, so I chose to embellish the card with lace.

I found this really cool stand which I don't know what it meant for in the storage room, but it definitely looks good as a card stand. hehe :) It's plastic but it looks like glass, don't you think?

Some paper flowers and buttons!

The background floral pattern is reverse embossing, I love the look of it. 

That's all for today, thanks for looking!
