Inspiration for Challenge #24

Hi folks, it's Jo on the blog today to share some inspiration to get Mr Mojo engaged for our current challenge...


We have a lovely guest with us for September: Jenny M from My Paper Epiphany. 


Take a look at what Jenny created for our launch post.


I just love Jenny's Holiday card and that EF is a stunner. I think embossing can bring extra 'wow' factor to any card, but there's something about using your EFs on Christmas and Holiday cards that just seems so right! 

I always like to keep a small stock of thank you cards and so I made this simple little card to add to my stash.


The embossing was created by alternating two Cuttlebug border folders on the central portion of the card. The two squiggly lines are debossed for a little added interest.

This was such a quick and easy card to make with the border folders, yet I hope you'll agree the end result is very pretty and effective. I really enjoyed the challenge of finding a way to emboss just a portion of my card and was so pleased to find yet another way of stretching my existing embossing folders rather than just rushing to buy more.

This fun challenge runs until the end of September and Gail, Jenny and I all hope that you'll come and play along!

What a lovely way to use the border folder Jo, this looks lovely (and I think it would make a great new baby design with a switch up of sentiment!)
