I just couldn't resist...

...I had to use the Emboss Technique for my card today. I just love this technique. My latest set by GinaK Designs, Hugs and Prayers, is just perfect for it. The text background is from one of my mostly used sets, Vintage Backgrounds. I stamped it with Vivid Straw ink. I then white embossed the poppies from Hugs and Prayers and sponged the panel with Vivid Brick Red. The card base is Sweet Corn CS. The beautiful red stitched ribbon is also from Gina K.

If you want to know how to do the emboss resist technique, see the video below. (If you're reading this from a RSS feed, you may not be able to view it until you go to this actual blog post).
