Embossed Edges for a Peace Dove

Photo Details

Poster: susanbri

For the Technique Lovers' Challenge - Emboss the Edges. I chose the second technique and after cutting my image out with a Nesties oval, I ran the same blue ink pad around the edge of the oval and added clear polysparkle embossing powder and heat embossed. It gives a very nice finish to the oval. IRL, there is more sparkle to the ep which goes well with the shimmery cardstock.

This is a great technique for CAS lovers - it eliminates the need for a bordering layer of cardstock so keeps the card even more simple!
