The Crafting Cafe February Challenge

I am playing along with The Crafting Café challenge. this month you have to create a card that has an embossed element on it. you can play along here http://thecraftingcafe.blogspot.co.uk/.

 I used the new digital papers from the Creativity Club for this project. you can get them from www.Docrafts.com if you are a Creativity Club member.

I used clear embossing powder to make the letters all shinny and bright. I love how heat embossing makes all the colours more vivid.

Forever Friends Forever love projects.

the forever friends forever love collection is very versatile and can be used for both valentines projects and Christmas.

 I made this card using the toppers which are great for saving time.

 I used the decoupage toppers on these cards which are ready cut and easy to assemble. I don't normally like decoupage because of having to cut out all the little bits but with these you just follow the step by step guide. you don't need to buy any special adhesives just use 3d foam pads.

 and finally my Christmas wreath I made using a polystyrene ring, x-cut a5 flower dies and a balling tool. it took ages to make all the flowers 3d but I am pleased with the end result.
