It's Zombie Season

 It's that time again for a new challenge at
Can You Handle The Pressure.
Our OPTIONAL theme is PUMPKINS!

I LOVE our embossing folder challenge!
It gives me plenty of opportunity to use my embossing folders
that for the most part have sat for ages rarely or never been used!

That is  the case with this folder
Cuttlebug Mini Monsters.
I embossed it on Cord'inations Black Magic paper.
Once I ran it thru my Gemini, I sanded it down to let the orange show thru.
I added a background paper, Gooseberry2009 (yep THAT old)
and added a Halloween sentiment strip.
I felt it need a little more 'zip' so sequins were glued on.

Make sure to head on over to
Can You Handle The Pressure
and see all the fun designs the teams have created!
Get YOUR embossing folders out and join in with us!!

OMG what a fun embossing folder ... looks amazing! Smart of you to do the sanding ... really gives it a defined, kind of rustic look! Awesome inspiration!

I have never seen that folder, I just love all the fun faces and like how you did it on black with the orange appearing with the sanding

Haha - "Zombie Season"!! Gotta love it. I really like how you made the pumpkins pop on the black embossed card stock, very nice. Really cute card and great design. Super adorable.

SO inspiring Diane! Love your use of Cord'inations paper and the sequins are the perfect embellishment to bring your pumpkins to life. I wish I had more EFs to play with but they always seem to go to the bottom of my wishlist!! Vicky x

Ha! What a great embossing folder! You sure have made me pull out my EFs more often, even if I can't get to the challenge in time. This is so dang cute, Diane!
