Provo Craft - Cuttlebug - Embossing Folder - Happy Birthday

I love homemade cards that have a big punch without the effort! Lazy, you say? Absolutely!

I don't have a Cuttlebug Machine, I have a Sizzix and these little babies work just fine. Just three little pulls of the lever and I have a beautifully embossed piece of paper that fits perfectly on the front of an A2 size card (4 1/4 x 5 1/2). The embossing is very detailed and looks very professional!

I take a colorbox chalk ink pad and gently rub over the top to make the embossing really pop. A pretty flower on top with a brad and ta daaaa!

My preference is for color but the embossing stands on it's own just fine! The words can be cut out for a lo or left together - so many choices!!!

The best part - $4.99! A light table and stylus are great tools but this is fast and easy.
