HMFMC #432-ATG or Use an embossing folder

 

I'm joining the current House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge to use an embossing folder.  My card features the adorable House-Mouse Designs Donut Day (retired).

The image was colored with Copic Markers and Prismacolor pencils.  It was fussy cut and layered onto an embossed panel using an interesting technique with embossing powders.  Basically, you layer embossing powders onto a piece of parchment paper, melt it then run it through the machine inside a folder of choice! 

The YouTube tutorial for the technique was recently shared on a Facebook group:    

YouTube Tutorial Double Embossing

This was my first attempt.


The chocolate panel was also embossed traditionally with a dot folder.  A few nuvo drops were added and a sentiment from Paper Smooches finishes the card.

I would like to share my card with the following:

I'll take one of these doughnuts, please. I've always liked this image. I clicked on the link to the double embossing and watched it. I have some parchment paper so I may get brave and try it. Your card is very cute. Thanks for joining us at the HMFMC. {Bunny} Designer for House Mouse and Friends
