This week at the Friday Mashup, the challenge is to make a Get Well Card using fabric. You can either make the get well card, use fabric or both together. I don't own any fabric and so I decided to just make a Get Well Card. One of the new Summer items I have not used yet is the new Flower Garden Embossing Folder. I actually embossed some velum with the folder and then turned the velum over, colouring the image from behind. I used the colours Regal Rose, River Rock and Early Espresso. I have always wanted to try this technique, what do you think?

This is absolutely lovely! I love the soft look to the flowers and the layout really works! I might have to try this technique, so into my favs this goes.

Your card is absolutely GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!! We're going to do this one at our next stamping class!!! ... I'm curious about the colors used on the back of the vellum for the flowers ~ are you sure you had them right? You said you used "Regal Rose, River Rock and Early Espresso." I'm trying to figure out where Early Espresso was used. It appears that River Rock was used for the leaves, I don't see Early Espresso anywhere, and then what was the lighter pink?
