Crafty Creations Challenge #155 - Home Sweet Home

This week's Crafty Creations Challenge #155 is Home Sweet Home.  I used this great image from our sponsor A Creative Need Digital Image Shop ... own own Deena!  Check out this awesome window image I picked to use:

I wanted the card to convey a cozy window in a home so I picked designer paper that looked like wall paper (K&Co.) .... and the sentiment (from Scattered Showers, Papertrey Ink) is a perfect match!

Let's see what the rest of the Group 2 Design Team created this week:

Crafty Creations Challenge #149 - Heat Embossing

Hello eveyone!  It is time again for another Crafty Creations Challenge.  This week we are trying to warm up ... so we are to use HEAT EMBOSSING!  

I took my inspirationn from this tag.  See the words clear embossed all over it.  Very Cool.  Maile Belles does this often - like HERE. 

So, I started out by printing this lovely digital butterfly by Patty onto white cardstock.  Then, I added the flowers (Life, Papertrey Ink) in Raspberry Fizz (Papertrey Ink).  I then stamped the leaf border image (from Modern Basics, Papertrey Ink) along the bottom of the panel using Versamark ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  Just to ensure I used enough heat embossing, I also used white embossing for the sentiment!

Here is the close-up of the clear embossing over the flowers.  A very cool effect.

Now you will want to go see what the rest of the Crafty Creations Design Team 2 did with heat embossing:
