CAS-ual Fridays Challenge: Embossing

 
Welcome back to another edition of the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge!  This week's challenge is all about embossing.....any kind is fine!  Our sponsor this week is the fabulous Ellen Hutson!!!   
 
 
 
 
I often forget about embossing folders but they give such amazing dimension and I really should use them more often!.  So I decided to use dry embossing for my card today.  I've used a Sizzix embossing folder......no idea what it's called as I borrowed it from a friend! 
 
I've embossed just the lower portion front portion of my card base.  I have then layered a red border to my Merry Christmas panel and adhered using foam adhesive. 
 
 
Merry Christmas  
 
Remember this challenge is sponsored by Ellen Hutson......so the winner will get to do a little shopping!!!
