I combined the two challenges, and learned something important.
The sanding of dry embossing would look better on a cardstock that didn't have white in the bg!! I'll try this again with a different cs, and I'm sure the results will be a stronger embossing feature!

How funny! Because I had the opposite experience! The first DP I tried had no white, but I was glad I'd had the foresight to try a scrap first because it looked like nothing on earth when I sanded it. Second time I tried some paper with white and loved the look. I guess it all depends on the paper... You ended up with a sweet card, anyway; the gingham looks totally fab with the sweet pink.

wow, I am loving this one though with the addition of the checked ribbon, you can't help but be drawn into the middle of the card and then...you see the depth of the DP. Pretty
