Two weeks ago, I challenged the Prettie Girls to make a card using dry embossing. They could use brass templates or even Cuttlebug folders. I decided to try and combine some smaller Cuttlebug folders to make this card. I used the bee from the Animals set and the flower from the Flowers set to create this scene. After I embossed the images, I went over them with Stampin' Pastels. I actually used the Basic Black marker for the bee because I didn't have a black pastel! The sentiment is from the Thoughtful Florals set by Verve Visual. Hopefully this card has already been received by Julie and made her smile!
