I just love how this card turned out – clean and simple with an awesome technique. I’ve had the Big Shot Embossing mats sitting in my craft room since last year when they were first introduced in the Annual Catalogue unopened.
As usual, I tend to go overboard buying many of the new accessories and get overwhelmed with all the goodies that some of them are forgotten. I decided to pull out the embossing mats and made this card using the Hey Love stamp set, also sitting unopened for quite some time :(.
I have seen many samples using the embossing mats with dies and wanted to try it and I just love this card! Let’s make it!
