This week's challenge Was set by Lythan
Embossing.
Dry embossing with a light box or with a die cutting machine.
Using embossing powders or triple embossing.
Using pre-embossed papers.
Embossing with found items.
Just have fun playing!
And as I can't resist being a little (em)bossy - why not see if you can get more than one emboss technique on your card?
So... My card.....
On a plain white, hammered card as a base. I dry embossed (yep! I've got a Shapeboss that never sees the light of day too, until today that is!) a flower into the corner and a couple of swirly bits down the side, which I then distressed using a paper scratcher. I heat embossed a gold border down the right hand side and attached that to the left of the card. I had some left over felt blooms from my Bubbly Funk May Kit, so used the bright green and white polka dot flowers and layered them up with a big, red, spotty brad. Using some lovely green rik rak from my stash as a stem I added a couple of the green polka dot leaves. Just a simple greeting hand written on the bottom and some gems to finish!
There! That's my second weekly dare complete! (Is it Friday again yet, I'm enjoying these challenges?!)

I was like you when I first joined in on the dares, before I was a DTer, couldn't wait for Fri or Tues to come, I'd be waiting ready for the dare to be posted, it is so much fun isn't it...

Fab card - very funky! Love the felt. Also your handwritten sentiment is great!

Extra points for two lots of embossing! And you don't have to wait until Friday - there will be a mini dare on Tuesday! I'm glad you are enjoying them
