Challenge 10 | Emboss It!

RRCB10

We are back with a new challenge - and our 10th!!  Awesome!!  We are so appreciative of our followers and our players!!  THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!! 

This week, our challenge is to Emboss something.  This is probably one of the first techniques that I learned when I started this crazy hobby, and is easy enough to add just the right special something to your cards. 

So whether you want to emboss an image, or your sentiment, use embossing powder on your card, tag or project. 

Be sure that you follow our main rule - The Retro Rubber Rule - to use some retro stamps - anything older than one year!!

 

This week we are also joined by Cornelia - she was the winner of Challenge 8.  Please visit her blog and welcome her today!!
