Using Embossing Folders in a New Way - August Collected Crafty Collabs

Howdy!

Today's card is for the Collected Crafty Collabs Hop! Which is a Monthly Themed Hop For Supplies You've Squirreled Away! We are part of the Handmade Happiness group on Facebook. Which is a great community of paper crafters of all styles. Handmade Happiness also has a mentorship program.

This month's theme is Vacation/Summer and/or Embossing Folders

If this is your first stop on the hop. Your next stop is Katy Ingram (eastwickpaperandink) . But if not then you were last at Teresa Russell.

For today I chose to play around with embossing folders and my gel plate! The video is below the card pictures.
