Today, I am participating in Kylie Bertucci’s International Blog Highlights Winner’s Hop. Thank you to all who voted for my card. I truly appreciate your support. The theme for today’s card is an expression of thanks. I decided to create a double embossed note of thanks. I love using different techniques with my cards. When you get to the end of my post, please “hop” along with me to see the creations of the other winners of the hop!

Note of Thanks

Double embossing is an easy way to create an interesting background with texture and shine. You simply ink you layer with Versamark Ink, cover with Clear Embossing Powder and use you heat tool to set the powder. Next, you dry emboss the layer with an embossing folder of your choice. Below, you will find a link to a previous video demonstrating the technique.

I chose to use Orchid Oasis card stock with one of the upcoming Online Exclusive Basics 3D Embossing Folders. The embossing folder I used reminded be of “bubbles.” Images and greetings are from the Sending Smiles stamp set. Balmy Blue was used for the card base and layer. I liked the contrast of Daffodil Delight and Parakeet Party against the double embossed Orchid Oasis background.
