Today over at the Alphabet challenge blog. We have a NEW challenge which is D - Dry Embossing!
I took the Online Card Classes Spring Card Camp 2 class. And one of the lessons was on how to do dry embossing with a stencil. I will admit that I had a bit of trouble doing this. But K Werner was so kind to give me a tip which worked for me. The tip was to use my die cut machine the same way I would with a die cut. But since there's no die cut to use a paper shim. So the sandwich I used was
PLEXI PLATE
STENCIL
CARDSTOCK
CARDSTOCK
PLEXI PLATE
After I embossed the cardstock piece I sponged white ink on top. And then I placed the die cut sentiment and bling.

It never occurred to me to use a stencil. I'm inspired to try it. Yours is such a subtle effect. It works so well. Love Dawn x
