This is lovely Miranda. That swirls embossing folder is so versatile I use it quite often. Think you've found your mojo again. Good luck at (pin)spirational this week.

ReplyDeleteGreat card, I love how vibrant the colours are and the quote is great! Thanks for joining us at {Pin}spirational this week!
ReplyDeleteI really like the embossing on the orange CS Miranda - and the swirls are perfect for your image! Adding the touch of orange ink to the several windows of your image panel is very effective and the placement of the leaves is a great touch! If you were in a slump, I think you just popped up out of it!!! Thank you for sharing your project in the “Add Some Embossing” Challenge at Craft Your Passion.
