Welcome, welcome, welcome to the fifth challenge here at
Let's Squash It!
Let's
Squash It! is The Embossing Folder Challenge. We are gonna help you
explore the world of the not so humble embossing folder and encourage
you to dig 'em out, knock the dust off and find old, new and fun ways to
make your projects pop.
We
have an awesome team to keep you entertained and awesome challenge
themes to stretch your creativity and get you using all those long
forgotten and neglected embossing folders.
For
those of you who are just tuning in you can check the previous posts
for the story behind the genesis of the challenge and the technique posts
for awesome tips and techniques to help you make the most of your supplies and folders.
Challenges
start on the 10th of the month and run to the last day at 23.59 GMT.
We will be picking top picks and a winner, who will have a chance to be our guest
designer for a future challenge. There is a little prize on offer for a
randomly selected winner and these will all be announced on the 5th of
next month.
So, Challenge #5

We

"Hello fellow Squashettes, I'm
delighted to be joining Gail and Jo this month to spread a
little love. I'm Joanne, although you might know me as Angelnorth. I've been crafting as long
as I can remember. If I messed up a project when I was little my
mum always said "Can you make a feature of it?" so I tend
towards the belief that there are no mistakes, just artistic
opportunities! Papercraft became my craft of choice around 2007
and here I still am, stamping and squashing!"
Yeah!! Welcome Joanne. And here is Joanne's fabulous card,
Joanne's Card uses

Thank you for having me along this time - looking forward to some fabulous love themed cards!
Stunning cards shown here! Looking forward to a new challenge - thank you for the inspiration! Have a blessed week!
Wonderful inspiration cards, you three! Can't wait to play along!! I still need one more Valentine :)
Well......I only found ONE love-themed folder in my stash, but I got very excited while using it and made several cards with it. I hope they are unique enough to be counted as separate entries, but if not...I totally understand. I had a lot of fun pulling out my sanding block and using it on my cards. Hadn't done that for awhile!! So soft and velvety...LOVE!!
Love the samples. Welcome to Joanne! Love your fun card with the embossing over the entire front design.
Everyone stay healthy and creative!

Great challenge and beautiful inspiration! I just linked up! I know it's not good enough to win but I keep trying! I love the cat embossing folder in your vault! Have a wonderful day!
Terrific cards for Challenge 5's wonderful theme! The gallery is jam packed, too! Wasn't sure when I'd get a blog post written, so hope you don't mind entering from IG. I'm using my ef more since you started the challenge--even if not using your theme, so thank you!
