Embossed is the new challenge at Try it on Tuesday, this could be dry embossing, heat embossing or textured embossing, so lots of choice there.
I've altered a gift box and as it was already black, I decided just to add a central piece. I used the Tim Holtz rose 3D embossing folder on a slightly marbled effect black card and then used gold rubbing wax to highlight the flower. and the edge of the cut panel.
So all I have to do now is fill it with goodies for Christmas.
The Design team have created some great projects for your inspiration, so please pop over to the main blog where you will also find all the challenge details.
Thanks for calling in,
Avril xx
