details to come, i promise! As usual i am dashing off to work!!!
Hi! This was for the Way to Use It challenge of using embossing powder on your card. This frame was made with a cut and emboss folder by Cuttlebug. I wanted and elegant and simple card, (yeah, I know, white paper on my card, it shocks me too!) and I embossed the whole frame with sparkly glittery ep(I forget the name of it) before I built my shaker. It does not look flat IRL, it is quite 3d. Thank you for looking!!!

such a beautiful card, even though it doesn't *read* well with all the WHITE!!!
Can you tell me why I never find cool CB stuff in my neck of the woods? I really like this little frame. Nice Challenge, now you can do your VIVID colors again for a while!!!:mrgreen:

Very elegant indeed, NancyRuth!!! What a creative idea!! I would have never thought to combine such elegant embossing with a shaker card..but it is fabulous!! As for the white.. good for you!!!! No need to be afraid of a little bare naked cardstock!!

White paper? Good for you! I love the elegance of that frame - I'll have to look for those folders! This has a wonderful sparkle and the colors in the shaker are perfect with the white card! Well done, my friend!
