International Ambassadors Informal Blog Hop ...

Hi Everybody,

Time for another Informal Blog Hop and this time we have chosen to use Embossing Folders for our theme.  For my card I chose the Medallion Design by Donna Salazar  and it gives a really elegant look to the card.

I did a video awhile ago on how to get the  Letterpress Technique   and that way you can make the most of any of your folders to give you two different designs.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and as always they are sparkled with fine glitter. The links are at the bottom of the post for you to view the products.  The sentiment has been stamped and embossed and then fussy cut and added to a parchment circle

So now it's time to hop your way to the next Blog post and see what my very talented friends have created for your delight this month ..

Linda Lucas  ...  Australia
Yvonne van de Grijp  ...  Netherlands
Christine Emberson  ...  UK

Please leave a comment and then we know you have visited and thank you for taking part again this month. We all really appreciate your support and we will see you again on the next Blog Hop

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

    Beautiful card,Christina,and using the embossing folder this way, really creates a pretty background!
    I'm not familiar with the letterpress technique myself, but having watched your video, I have to make a try :))

    Absolutely love this card, the colours you have chosen, are gorgeous to say the least! And, as ever, the flowers look stunning! I just wish that when I try the letterpress technique, it looked halfway like yours does! It always looks a mess to me! lol! Maybe I am too heavy handed with the inking! who knows! Thanks for sharing this lovely card Christina!
    Hugs,

    Christina, lovely card. I like the colors. The embossing folders add do much. With the letterpress technique is fun to do. It is a technique my young granddaughter can use with her embossing machine. Thank you for all your wonderful creatively.
