*** A little embossing ****

 Hi folks,

Hope all is well with you.   I have been feeling poorly for the past month but finaly am beginning to see the light. Slowly but surely I will be back to my old self.  With the weather warming up I am happy to be able to get outside and enjoy the sunshine.  I even got to bring the patio back to life with new plants and greenery. My favourite annual is blue lobelia which I think is a show stopper when in full bloom.

Today I have a card for the new challenge beginning at

Fab'n'Funky Challenge #638

hosted by our lovely talented Chris who has chosen the theme

"Stencil or Embossing Folder"

I have used an embossing folder and a technique that I'm not sure I've done credit to.  Turning the embossed figure to the back side and running a distressed ink pad in Spun Sugar over it.  This card came together very quickly ..adding a few gems for interest.
