Pedal Pusher - JanB Cards

Hello, Crafters.

I wish you and your families a happy and blessed Easter.

Two of the features I’ve used on today’s card were inspired by one card I received as a swap last Sunday and one that was part of the Show and Tell display.

I know I keep referring back to last Sunday’s Team Training, but we really do get a lot out of the day.

First is Elaine Kerr’s swap card I shared with you yesterday as well as a card that was on Show & Tell at last Sunday’s training.

The feature I’ve picked out from Elaine’s card is the dry embossing – please see photograph 5.

On Elaine’s card, there are three vertical embossed line that run from top to bottom just to the right hand side of the coloured Designer Series Paper.

The feature I picked out from the Show & Tell card was the heat embossing on the Designer Series Paper – please see photograph 6.

Unfortunately I don’t know who made this card so can’t give credit where credit’s due!

This isn’t something I’ve ever tried before but I think it looks brilliant on the card shown here and couldn’t wait to try it.

I will definitely be using these techniques again.

For my card, I’ve dry embossed a double frame around the image.

I love the look of it but it was a struggle to get the positioning correct – success came on my third attempt!

I started my card with a base of Whisper White Cardstock with a layer of Tempting Turquoise – I can’t remember the last time I used this colour! – and a top layer of Whisper white.
