I saw an example of "Inlaid Embossing" the other day (please forgive me, I don't remember who posted the technique) and decided to try it. French Foliage works perfectly, stamped first, and then embossed with the Square Lattice embossing folder. I dyed the jute by running it across my stamping pad, holding it with a piece of sponge. This went together quickly and made a card that I gave to a very special friend. I knew she had recently purchased this set and wanted to give her another idea of how to use it. Hope it helps you too!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE what you did with this set... I had to have it too... anything with leaves winds up being a set I "can't live without"... love the effect of the stamping and then embossing... looks like fabric with the design woven into it rather than printed on top... guess I could get a similar effect using some of my fall-themed patterned dp... Can't wait to see you next month! Luvu
