Friendship is found in simple things

Hi everyone!

I have the great honor to be a Guest Designer at the Male Room this month.

The theme is "Dry Embossing"

I love flowers, but curiously they don't show up on my cards very often!

I took the opportunity of this guest designer spot to put a little flower on my card.

First, I pasted two different washi tapes across the card. Then I die cut the flower once, and used the same die to emboss the flowers on the card. You just have to replace the lower B plate (Cuttlebug or Big Shot) with a silicone plate and you can emboss with any die!

I sponged the top of the card with Picked Raspberry and Wild Honey. 

I used the same colors + Mowed Lawn and a water brush pen to color the flower. I stamped the sentiment last, but I think it would have been better if I did it before embossing. - Have to keep this in mind for a next time!
