For this card, I used an embossing folder on the light pink paper, and then “painted” color onto the embossed areas using reinkers and an aqua brush.

This is really pretty. Would you set it aside for me. Bill really appreciated the valentines card. It was just too perfect.

Terry – I will make another (this is part of my ongoing project), not a problem. I am glad that Bill liked the card (I got a chemistry themed set – more sentiments to share).

Another interesting and different thing to do with embossing folders. I am getting a lot of ideas from you. Love this card. We both know I would!!

Thanks, Gillian! This is one I have been “painting” since I first got it (and no one else was painting embossing back then – it just screamed “paint me!”). And, YES, PINK!

It kind of looks like embroidery, I think?!
