Distressed Embossing-Simple Joys
I am still playing with the embossing element. This card was embossed on the light side of a "Core Color" card stock, I embossed it 3 times with the Cricut Expression and "Straight From the Nest" cart. It has a geometric shappy chic feel to it. I then sanded it and embellished with polka dots punched from an EK Success punch (I love this punch as it gives about 4 or 5 different sizes of polka dots), Spellbinder's Nesties and the little word blocks were printed and cut with the Imagine (I used RGB codes to match the color perfectly to the red cardstock). Photo corners are also by EK Success. The color inspiration came from a card Donna M. did a week or so ago, these colors have such a wonderful punch. I have some navy blue I am thinking of doing a snowflake. Happy Sunday, Hugs. Sandi

Well I'm proud to have been a teeny bit of inspiration for such a gorgeous card! LOVE the embossing on this cardstock. Such a unique effect. xxD
Such a fabulous idea to emboss with your Cricut. I seen this for the 1st time a few weeks ago and have been meaning to give it a try. You may have inspired my memory!
I love the vintage feel you have going on with this! The embossing is awesome! ~Diane
This turned out amazing! I didn't realize it gave that good a result on that paper, now I must try! Thanks for the inspiration! Amy
