Happy New Year!
That's right, it's a brand new year and
so it's time for the first challenge at
For our first challenge, we want to see what you make using
your new craft goodies. For real!
Break out your new stash that you either got as a gift, or perhaps
something you bought last year and still haven't used it yet.
Of course, mixing in some older items with the new would be awesome!
Here's what I came up with:
I tried my hand at embossing the die instead of cutting it out. That's a fun
technique I'll be trying more of in future.
I hope that you play along this fortnight in the What's New challenge

ReplyDeleteHello, Chris. I've never tried printing directly on the paper and then blind embossing with the matching die - but I can see that I need to try it! Great card! Thanks for jumping in on our first ATCAS challenge of 2021. Hugs, Fran
