Stamping at The Warren: Very Versatile Boughs & Berries

Tuesday 6 October 2015

Welcome to another tutorial

And the card I am sharing with you today, has become one of my favourites for this year.

The main feature of today's project is the Dry Embossing, using the

Boughs & Berries Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF)

This folder creates a beautiful festive border, leaving a void in the centre for you to create some stunning toppers.

I have gone with a couple of the Christmas Sentiments from the

Versatile Christmas Stamp Set

using a layered label to allow the Sentiment to become the star of the show.
