Hello again!
Next up is my entry into one of my favourite sketch challenges, Freshly Made Sketches.
I’ve always loved dry embossing but haven’t used my folders much since I switched to the Gemini Junior die cutting machine. I could never get the plate/sandwich quite right. Last week, I decided to get my old manual die cutting machine out again, so I cleared some space in my craft room and set it up. So far, so good! The Gemini will continue to be my favourite machine for die cutting but it was so good to get a decent first impression with an embossing folder again!
So the reason for this little back story is that I was able to quickly emboss this sweet flowery scene with my new set up using an older Couture Creations folder. I added some die cut butterflies (Stampin Up, Memory Box and Simon Says Stamp) and a sentiment by Clearly Besotted.
Thanks for stopping by!

This is as sweet as can be! Love the delicate butterflies! Glad you joined us at FMS!

I do the same as you. Die cutting with my Gemini Jr and embossing with my Big Shot. Old habits die hard, I guess! This card is beautiful! The embossed flowers and the sweet butterflies are a match made in Heaven! Thanks for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches!
