Papertrey Make It Monday

PTI Make It Monday this week is embossing.  I struggle with embossing -- usually end up with tee tiny little dots from the excess powder.  However, with the PTI die cuts -- oh so much easier!!  Both this flower, and the leaves are die cuts and I have embossed both.  No overflow on these 2 puppies.  We are not talking about the attempt I made yesterday--- hee hee.  I used my new PTI sets Dot Spot and Hello Friend, along with my stand by Turning a New Leaf.  I am really enjoying die cuts -- sheez I dislike cutting!
Thanks for stopping by -

I just noticed you live in Casa Grande, AZ. We lived in Phoenix for four years '03-07. Our church worked with some of the gals in Teen Challenge there in Casa Grande we would carpool down there. It was always a pleasant drive...after rush hour traffic was over!
I miss, miss Phoenix with all my heart!
have a great day,
Kathy

Great card, Vicki! I am VERY tempted to get that Turning a New Leaf die set. You have used both dies wonderfully and I like the image in the BG.
