This is for a deer loving buddy's birthday. Seeing so many great things with the woodland embossing folder..ordered it in early November. It has been on back order until yesterday . i have to say it was worth the wait. Using a technique that is all over pinterest were you stamp and image on the folder, sponge ink all over, and run it through the big shot. It gives you a cool look...the magic is were the stamp is behind the birch trees. Going a step further...took my water color brushes and did some water coloring. The neat part is the embossed trees with the coloring behind. This folder will be used. Here is a link for the tutorial. http://createwithdee.typepad.com/my-...technique.html TFL

I'm in love, Mrs. T. V. Personality. I watched the video and have looked closely at your card and realize this has to be one of the most handmade striking cards I've ever seen. You've obviously an astute learner as evidenced by this magnificent card. Oh boy, I can just see the 'favorites' this sunday! Prepare to type a lot of 'thank you' comments. Beautiful.

Linda this is so stunning! You added water coloring behind those trees is so amazing and I sure do love that technique to stamp the image then run it through the big shot and then fill in the added details. You just took it to a whole new level. Beautifully done!
