Embossing Folder Technique

Let's take a break from Halloween today and talk technique!  I want to show another card using the WOODLAND EMBOSSING FOLDER to add color and dimension to you cards.

Isn't this gorgeous!  The colors are subtle but give lots of dimension to the card.  But before I get to the details, I got my inspiration from the sketch challenge at Create with Connie and Mary.

This sketch has so many possibilities!  I went in a masculine direction so I could show you how versatile the embossing folders can be.
