This is a card I made for the TLC. Lynn, suggested we use this cool and easy technique called "faux suede". Blue suede shoes came to mind, so I used night of navy for my faux suede. And since I was already playing with my birdies, used them again!
Thanks for the cool challenge Lynn and thank you for looking!

How sweet. I know this is one of the embossing folders that I think looks fantastic when other people use it, but it keeps dropping off my shopping list because I can't imagine me using it.

This is great with the blue faux suede! The birds look so cool against that suede finish, and I love the white sentiment at the bottom! Beautifully done!
