November Card Sketch Challenge - Sketch #4

I haven't used the embossing machine much but I decided to experiment with it recently. I really like the simplicity of this card. There are a lot of distressing techniques that are possible with an embossed image. I will have to try some out and I'll share the outcomes.

I loved the card I saw on Nichole Heady's blog here: http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2008/04/simple-little-t.html ...And I needed a birthday card, so I used her idea and did what I could with it! I like hers better, but I think mine turned out okay, too! :) ....I colored the vellum with an SU's Olive ink pad & aquapainter. What do you think?

I was browsing FB last night & saw that someone made a card using a napkin & embossing folder. I loved it & said I can do that too. I die cut a balloon onto a post it note & sponged on today's colors. I used Blushing Bride instead of Petal Pink, which I don't have. Then I stamped little images, then embossed with this Cuttlebug ef. I have dessert but you can barely see the stamped stitched hearts, so look close!! Should've used FF for them istead of BB. This was fun to do & I would/will…
