I just purchased this embossing folder from Sizzix, so had to use it. It's a combo, 'baby'. Though I only used the lower portion of it as I didn't want the words that are also on the embossing folder. I added a touch of color with chalks, popped up two birds and added flowers I made. I have a zillion purchased flowers I could use, but found this awesome tutorial for these flowers here http://www.learntostampandscrap.com/...verywhere.html and thought I'd try them. Though I used a small flower punch, and I also ran a sheet of paper through the crimper BEFORE punching out the flowers, as I'd never have got my tiny flowers through the crimper. Not to mention it seems more time efficient. All paper edges are distressed and inked a bit. I used a MS border punch at top and bottom of one layer, and a bit of DP to show between layers of CS. TFL, have a great day! : )

Great new embossing floder and REALLY like that you distressed the paper - really added to it! LOVE your little flowers! Now, really, did you already have a "crimper" or did you have to buy one? Or, did you skip that part? :-)
