My Creative Time ~ Designer Challenge ~ Embossing

Happy Thursday! This week Emma over at My Creative Time has the very talented and creative Miss Nikki , Scrappin Navy Wife , hosting! Nikki has asked us to emboss on our projects. She said it can be heat or dry ~ super fun for me! Not sure if you have ever noticed but Nikki is the Queen of embossing (heat) ~ her embossing is PERFECT!

So for my card I decided make an easel card and use both types of embossing. I found this ribbon right before Emma's November release and TOTALLY forgot to use it! How PERFECT does it go with her "Vintage Label Stamps" ! I also found this Cuttlebug embossing folder to boot! I think it ties in just PERFECTLY together! I added a little white chalk to soften up my card because of my color choices ~ other than that it is rather self explanatory! I will list all materials used below!

 
Materials Used:
 
My Creative Time ~ "Vintage Label Die" ~ dies
My Creative Time ~ "Vintage Label Stamps" ~ stamps
My Creative Time ~ "Card Sentiments" ~ sentiment on label die
My Creative Time ~ "Scallop and Stitched Circle" ~ circle
 My Creative Time ~ "All Around Everything" ~ round sentiment
My Creative Time ~ "Rolled Flower Dies" ~ flowers
My Creative Time ~ "Curly Label Die" ~ die
My Creative Time ~ "Stitched Curly Label Die" ~ die
My Creative Time ~ "Pain, Pain Go Away" ~ sentiment on curly die
Paper ~ Paper Trey Ink
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder
Martha Stewart Embossing powder
Ink Versa Mark, Archival & A La Mode
Ribbon from M's or J's
