I love to wet emboss, and I did something totally different today because I embossed with 3 different colors! It as fun to do too!

I used my embossing pen to outline the digi image one color at a time. I used the double sided tape to outline and emboss the base card stock.
The heart shaped window is pop dotted up and set over a cloud paper.
Zig - Emboss Writer
Stamp-n-Stuff - Red Dragon embossing powder
American Crafts - Zing Brownie embossing powder
Prima - Goldsboro paper
Therm O Web - double sided tape
cloud paper, black embossing powder, pop dots - misc.
Aleene's Tacky Glue
Fiskars - fingertip knife
But ya know, it just didn't look finished, so I hope you don't mind that I tweaked the card a tad. First I wasn't happy with the added line of embossing off to the left of the heart, it had a bend in it that I didn't notice until I posted the photos...and the top loop of the "h" had dulled a little because of the gold gelato. I thought it was a done deal, regardless of not being happy with it. I went to bed....and I thought....and I thought....I just couldn't get it out of my head. And then....while reading my latest James Patterson book, out of the clear ( 'cause obviously the book Cross Fire had NOTHING to do with a squirrel card! ) an idea came to me...he needed a red balloon to be floating from, and the embroidery thread would smooth out that kink too....ahh..and while I was at it, I covered the dulled "h" with my black pen.
Ok, so was it worth getting back out of bed for?
....yes sireee it was!
DMC - embroidery thread
Frances Meyer - balloon sticker
Helmar - Zap Dot

Love the addition of the red balloon. Its perfect!
It was worth getting back out of bed, because you were right on, he. Needed the balloon! This is adorable.
Wow, this is so cute! Love that you used embroidery floss, I thought maybe it was fussy cutting at first. That would be VERY fussy!
This is stunning. Love the details and image looks 3D to me. TFS.
Hugs from your NC friend.
