LNS Embedded Embossing with Mixed Bunch

Hello, Friends!

This week, our Late Night Stampers challenge is Embedded Embossing.  It's very easy and always reminds me of a quilt!  For this card, I stamped my "Mixed Bunch" flowers and centers.  Then, I used the Circle and Blossom punches to cut them out.  I glued them to my Bashful Blue card stock and then ran the whole piece through the Big Shot using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  This gave texture to the whole front of my card.  I added the sentiment from "Pursuit of Happiness" and some ribbon and my card was complete.  I love how it turned out and hope you do, too!  

Happy Stamping!

I used the following Stampin' Up products to make this card:

Hello, Friends!

Long time, no blog. 

February was an incredibly busy month.  We had a Family Worship Night (think dinner, lesson, games, craft, take home bag extravaganza), Winter Camp where we took 53 4th-6th graders and 10 leaders to camp for the weekend, a conference, and a house guest (wonderful!) all within 2 weeks.  It was crazy.  Throw in some blogger issues and I was down for the count.  Thankfully, March is much less busy and there is some serious stamping time in my future. 

Because I was a little behind, I rolled three challenges into this card.  First, it's Friday so it's Sketch Frenzy Friday time for the design of the card.  Then, Pals Paper Arts and Late Night Stampers are both Going Green this week.  So my card fits both of their challenges. 

If you've been checking my blog the past couple of weeks, thanks for hanging in there.  Life with a Wiener Dog has calmed down and there are some fun cards headed your way.

Happy Stamping!
