Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 21st 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 8th of
next month.
So, Challenge #21

We
are very pleased to have our Let's Squash It!! Empress joining us
as our guest designer this month. Please welcome Joanne aka Angelnorth
"Hello fellow Squashettes. I'm
delighted Gail and Jo have invited me back as Guest Designer. Let's Squash It is probably my favourite challenge! For those
who don't know me, I'm Joanne, usually known as Angelnorth
online. I still try to live by my Mum's crafting mantra if
things go "wrong" - she always said "Can you make a feature of
it?" so I tend towards the belief that there are no mistakes,
just artistic opportunities! I've been papercrafting for long
enough that things I bought early on have become fashionable
again, which just goes to show you should never throw anything
away!"
And here is Joanne's card using
cART-US Embossing folder - 3D DOTS
