I decided to go “Clean & Simple” for today’s challenge card at Merry Monday. Take a look at what we have in store for you this week as Katie is our hostess:
I decided to go “stripes” for my card with some dry embossing:
Wait a minute, where are the stripes in the center of my card? I purposely used the “Altered Impressions Folder Technique” or also called “Partial Embossing”. Do you like? And the “Wintertime” stamp image fits perfectly in the center. I also added some “Frosted Sequins” with “Rhinestone Jewels” in the center to add a little bit of bling to my card:
I have a tutorial on my Free Tutorials & Techniques page that you can find HERE on how to complete this technique! Make sure you visit my teammates at Merry Monday to see what they’ve been up to!
Thanks for stopping by to visit me today!

This card is absolutely gorgeous, Debbie!! I love the partial embossing and that sentiment is such a pretty focal point! (it also has some dots in it … just sayin') lol…have a super dooper week ahead girl!
The partial embossing really draws the eye to the center of your card and I love those colors together! Fab card!
Beautiful! I have such a crush on this stamp set but have avoided it because it doesn't say "Christmas" – but you are tempting me! Love the colors, the embossing, and your finishing touches of snowflakes and bling.
This card is gorgeous. I have that stamp, but don't see a lot of ideas for using it. Thanks so much for sharing your work.

Debbie, this is gorgeous. I love the dry embossed stripes and the colors are wonderful together. I really love how the stripes stop around the sentiment and help to really focus your eye on it. Thanks for having me along as Featured Designer this month
