I made this card with 3 snippets of pastel cardstock and a WeRMemory Keepers gemstone embossing folder. I placed each embossed piece on a white card base and then added a die-cut MB Arborscello tree and added a few tiny bluebirds done with an IO set of bird dies. The sentiment is by SU!
I will share this with the following challenges:
The Alphabet Challenge- E is for Embossing wet or Dry
Can You Handle the Pressure? - Use an embossing folder
with an optional twist of using fruits or vegetables
the Allsorts Challenge #783- Lots of layers or anything goes
I have no clue why I can no longer link the blog post directly on the text from each challenge, but when I try to do it as I've always done it, it adds a 2nd link, so I've had to put the links underneath the descriptions. I've had a lot of issues with my computer in the previous day and clearly it's still not all resolved.
Thanks for stopping by and make it a great weekend too!

I think from what some of the girls on teams have said this week that Blogger has a few issues, fingers crossed I've not encountered any (yet)but what you mention may well be part of it.
ReplyDeleteThe embossing folder is very effective with the faceted design and those layers perfect at Allsorts this week, many thanks for joining us.

Fabulous card, I like that embossed pastel background and fabulous tree and blue birds!
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely card. I love the tree and the gemstone embossing, gorgeous! And a great way to use up scraps and snippets! Hugs, Valerie

A lovely pastel coloured card, such a pretty tree with the bluebirds and the embossing is just right (unusual too). I've been having problems with the linking tool on Blogger when I try to do it in the usual way. I get a repeat of the 'link' words show up within the post - one as I entered it and a second in highlighted text. I've been editing out the word(s) I used for the link, leaving in the highlighted one inserted by Blogger and it seems to work. I hope this makes sense - difficult thing to explain 🙄. Another new problem seems to have appeared as well if you want to change the size of your photo - it doesn't work now and the photo stays the same size instead of changing to what you tick.
ReplyDeleteThat’s a really nice embossing folder and a lovely tree die cut.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your blogging problems - you’re not alone. Xxx
This is a very sweet card with those pastel colours and the cute tree with the tiny blue birds! Great design as always, Carol! The 3D folder adds also more interest, really a beautiful effect!
ReplyDeleteSorry for your issues with Blogger, hope you will solve soon!
Have a great weekend you too dear friend! Big hugs!
Beautiful card, Carol. I love the embossing folder you’ve used.
ReplyDeleteI think Blogger have a few glitches at the moment. Quite a few of us seem to be having problems with a couple of editing things.

Very pretty card, Carol! Love the soft pastel colors and especially that embossing folder. The sentiment completes this nicely! I think Blogger has been having some issues so hopefully soon you will be able to do things the way your use to. Hang in there! Sometimes I hate technology, too!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful card, Carol. I love the embossing, the colors and using white for the tree was a great idea. You did a fabulous job.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet card. I'm sure the recipient will appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteI had all kinds of issues with blogger recently, linking things has been one of them! Hope they get things straightened out soon!

Carol, your card is simply delightful!
ReplyDeleteThe pastel colors and embossed background are so pretty, and the tree with the bluebirds is darling.
Sorry to hear about your blogging issues; technology can be frustrating.
Wishing you a great weekend!
Your use of pastel cardstock and the gemstone embossing folder from WeRMemory Keepers creates such a delightful texture on your card. The addition of the die-cut MB Arborscello tree and tiny bluebirds adds a charming touch, perfectly complemented by the sentiment from SU!
ReplyDeleteOh wow I just love the pretty pastel colors of your embossed panels! I do love this folder which I have and hardly use! the tree with the birds is equally awesome as well as the sentiment! I love making these type of cards to lift spirits! Hope your computer issues work out...HUGS
