DEBUT DESIGN FOR CUTTLEBUG CHALLENGES

Yay!!!! It's Wednesday and time for the very first challenge over at Trudi's fabulous new blog
CUTTLEBUG CHALLENGES

As a member of Trudi's new Design Team, it is time for me to reveal my card after teasing you with a little sneaky peek! :)
Our first challenge is to use three different embossing folders, and this little card uses Perfect Paisley, Swiss Dots(everyones favourite!) and Textile Texture.
I do love the effect that 'sanding' gives to the embossed pieces, which i've done on both colours. The white portion has been edged with my Threading Water punch from Fiskars, and i've cut around some parts of the TT design to create my flower 'petals'.
The sentiment is stamped directly onto the card using Ranger archival black ink. The button is Basic Grey 'Euphoria' and a tiny bit of ribbon from my stash!

I do hope you will play along with your 'bug' and show us what you can do with three different folders, and don't forget to check out the other DT members for their fab ideas too! :)
Thank you so much for popping in today...........

Cuttlehugs!
