Sadly, since I started die-cutting, my dry embossing has taken a back seat, but I've been experimenting with different ways to add it back into my repertoire, and your card inspires me so much!

I love your beautiful card, my friend.<br />And: I completely understand your thinking not to buy a cutting machine. I did the same thing until I realized that I really needed a Big Shop. And when I bought it, I left it in no use for more than 6 months! Do you believe it? Of yes, it is true. Only recently I decided that I love use it for embossing and die cutting. <br />But I still resist in trying dry embossing! I do not like using the heat gun! But I am sure that one day (maybe soon) I will chance my mind.<br />Hugs, sweetie!Miahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00273989691509008125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518452337254767147.post-23480375999101076982019-03-30T18:25:35.636-07:002019-03-30T18:25:35.636-07:00Beautiful stamped leaves over the embossed backgro...Beautiful stamped leaves over the embossed background, Greta!!Linda W.
