Happy Tuesday and time for this week's new colour palette from the colourQ!
Working with cardstock alone I decided to emboss my design using both dry and heat embossing. Super talented Kelly Griglione shared a brilliant and creative money saving tip a few weeks ago to emboss cardstock with a piece of actual burlap! Works like a dream and looks fantastic. Here is her fabulous idea and photo tutorial here. My flowers are Waltzingmouse new Funky Florals.
Head over to the colourQ and see what the rest of the design team has in store for you this week. We hope that you join in the fun.
