Something a little different...


Well, the weekend is over and today I really should do some work, soooooo here's a little card I've been saving.  No digi image on this one....instead there's a decoupage flower with 3D layers.  These flowers were already coloured and just had to be punched out and popped up with tiny foam tabs.  All my papers are card stock, no fancy DP, and I've added some doodling to the edges.  The something different, is the embossed cut work.  I've used an embossing die in my Big Shot, and then cut out part of the design with my exacto knife.  I quite like the effect, and should remember to do this more often.

 Well I do have to run, can't be crafting and having fun all of the time.  Enjoy your day!
