Embossed Celtic Weave


Hi, I tried a new embossing folder today and  I love how tactile the card is!
It's a Spellbinders3D M Bossabilities and it embosses quite deeply.

The butterfly was stamped with versafine and clear embossed, fussy cut and coloured with Prismacolor pencils.
I don't think I'll add a sentiment, I just like feeling the card lol!

I'm linking up to a couple of challenges.
Allsorts has an embossing theme. I've used both wet and dry embossing.

Addicted to Stamps & More has a make your mark theme, to use markers, pens or pencils.

Stamping Sensations has a colour challenge, warm autumn colours.

Supplies:
Hero Arts antique Engravings butterfly stamp; Spellbinders Celtic Weave embossing folder;
Versafine ink & clear embossing powder; Prismacolor pencils; Spellbinders floral oval and classic oval dies.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

The depth of embossing sows up so well on your photo Cathy and I can almost feel how tactile it is and of course love the flutterby.

Thanks so much for sharing your creativity with us at Stamping Sensations challenge.
