This is from an on-line class from a small group that I belong to. It is called the Dahlia fold. Using 8 circles, double sided background paper, and some folding, it creates the flower. I just wish I had a larger rinestone for the center.

Playing around with my embossing folders again. I inked the folder, ran the paper through the Zip-e-mate, and was disappointed with the results. BUT then it hit me! What an awesome look for an ATC! So I added it to the simple birthday card I had made for a dear friend. (The background is embossed with the same folder, it just doesn't show up well in the scan.)

Where has the time gone???

Weren't we just celebrating Christmas a few weeks ago???? Man, it is hard to believe it is March already!

I played around today with my Cuttlebug Embossing folders and created an ATC for a friend. I embossed the scrapbook paper, then sanded it to reveal the white core of the paper. I am rather pleased with how it turned out!
