Can You Handle the Pressure has a new challenge starting today! This challenge requires that you must use an embossing folder while creating your card. The theme is always “anything goes, ” however there’s also an optional twist you can play along with each time if you want. For this challenge the optional twist is “rainbows.”
Instead of an actual rainbow I went with rainbow colors. I used a stencil for the heart and blended the various inks over it, then added the sentiment on top. The edges of the card were embossed with a border folder from Crafter’s Companion.
If you want to get some more ideas for your embossing folders be sure to visit the challenge blog to see the rest of the design teams cards!

Love your blended heart in the rainbow colors and the sentiment stamped over it. Lovely embossed borders too. TFS
This card is so pretty. I love the ink blended heart, but what really makes this card is that background embossing. It’s so elegant and lovely!
Melanie: Your card is LOVEly!! I’m loving the rainbow ink colored heart! Sandwiching the birthday sentiment and heart between the two embossed borders is a terrific way to put the focus in the center. Thanks for linking to MTTC! –Becca/DT
