I think this is beautiful! I tried to make a similar card last night, and had a terrible time trying to dry emboss the leaves! Can you tell me how you did it, since you can't see through the green paper? Thanks so much in advance!

I actually used a paper made for embossing. I can not for the life of me remember the name of it. I got it at a LSS. It's thicker than copy paper, but thinner than cardstock. It's printed on one side and white on the other. This one (for the leaves) is green with little white dots. The white in this is regular cardstock. I have tried this with SU cardstock. I really have to use wax paper to make sure it's a smooth design and I don't poke holes. HTH

Thanks so much! That will work great! I think I know the paper you are referring to, will go pick some up. I used US White SU cardstock for the daisy and it worked great...now have a way to make the beautiful leaves. OH...the laundry and yardwork will just have to wait. I have MUCH more important things to do!! :-) Thanks again...I love your work!
