Sunflower Embossing Folder
I am finally back and rested up from all of my doctor's appointments and travels. I hope I can keep a consistent posting schedule again. This beautiful Sunflower Embossing Folder card is one we made at Make-It-Monday before I left for the Alaskan Cruise.

I started me card by embossing a piece of Basic White Cardstock with the Sunflower Embossing Folder. You want to be sure that you get a deep impression when embossing. I then used the debossed side (with the indents down) and some sponge daubers to color the sunflowers and leaves. Once I was happy with my coloring I took an Early Espresso ink pad and drug it lightly over the whole piece of cardstock. the ink will adhere to the raised portions of the cardstock but not the debossed portions where you colored. It is a pretty cool technique.
I think I finally have my feet under me again and am rested up from all of my adventures. I had only been home from Alaska three days when I took off again for a weekend stamping retreat in Waunakee, Wisconsin. I had stamp day right after I got home from that and appointments yesterday. There is nothing on my calendar for today so I am hoping I can get caught up on a lot of things. There was another Last Chance List that was released while I was gone so I need to go through my shelves again and pull the Last Chance stamps. I think that is going to be a never ending job with the way they are releasing and retiring stamps now. I also hope to get pictures taken of leftover garage sale stamps and posted on my Facebook LyndaSueStamps4U page.
Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!
Happy Stamping!!
