yeah it's Saturday! and another challenge over at Scrap and Stamp Saturday. this week the challenge is embossing...heat embossing or blind embossing whatever you fancy - and with at least one stamped image used on your layout. remember that you can enter your layout featuring embossing and stand a chance to win some awesome prizes! for my layout i chose both - i used a tim holtz embossing folder, inked it using my Versamark ink pad and then embossed my card stock. once done i added silver embossing powder on top and heat set to add my thermal/heat embossing. i absolutely love this effect!!

and here's a close up shop of the embossing with the folder and then heat embossed with silver embossing powder onto green card stock...but there's more

i heat embossed this arrow stamp by stampers anonymous and then sprayed it with espresso colorwash and left it to dry naturally

and then embossed some metal sheeting with a cuttlebug folder and punched into a circle accent

embossing is such a versatile technique and the possibilities are endless. play along this week and share in the fun - we would love to see what you girls come up with.
