More dry embossing

Here are the rest of the cards (3) I made with my left over mirror board. I now have to get some more!  The ornament shape was punched out of the mirror board before embossing.

Card 1:  Sorry this so "flarey" - it must be the colour of the paper (a light limey green) as the other photos were fine and this was the best of the three I took of this card!


Supplies:
Paper - Bazzil basics for the card base, red strip of c/s from stash, red and gold mirror board from stash
Tools - Cuttlebug, "thin ice" by Sizzix embossing folder (baubles), "diamonds and dots" embossing folder by Quikcutz, "textile" (gold one) embossing folder by Cuttlebug, "pinstripe" (red card) by Couture creations, ornament punch from SU
Other - old olive and real red grosgrain ribbon from SU, red Kindyglitz
Adhesive - snail, dimensionals, sticky strip, glue dots


Card 2:

Supplies:
Paper - Bazzil basics for the card base, silver mirror board from stash, rich razzleberry c/s from SU, "cottage garden" DSP from SU (ret)

After a few warm days it's back to cold and rainy.  Better not be like this on Saturday!!! (market day) Am working on more paper ornaments.  There are so many beautiful ones out there in the blogosphere.  Am getting a Big Shot this week so will soon be able to make more 3-D items.  Very excited.  Will still use my trusty Cuttlebug (it has served me well) but it just can't handle the size of the bigger dies for 3-D items.

Happy crafting!
Cheers
Susie
