Hello Friend

Good Morning!  


This card will be entered into the Gina K Designs Challenge, Add Texture!

 Sheri is the Host and shares some easy ways to add texture: 

  • Embossing (Heat & Dry)
  • Faux Stitching (Use Die Cuts)
  • Layers (Adding lots of die cuts pieces & Card Stock Layers)
  • Splatter (Creates the Illusion of Texture)
  • Texture Paste/Glitz Glitter Gel


I'm a HUGE fan of layers and dimension for sure!
I also added texture with and Embossing Folder, but used the 'de' bossed side.

I had all of the products still out on my desk
