Embossing

I'm back with another card today and this one is focused on embossing, one of my fave techniques.
P1110370
Embossing is a simple way to add texture and visual interest to a card like with the Woodgrain stamp I used on the background and for focal images like the swirly flowers.

There are a couple of challenges right now focused on embossing. One is at the CAS-ual Fridays blog.
The other is at A Blog Named Hero.
I think this also qualifies for Moxie Fabs Repetition Challenge and Simon Says Stamps Put A Stamp On It Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!
