Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!
WHAT: Mix It Up challenge blog Anything Goes with option of embossing
WHY: I'm a DT member and I chose an embossing folder to do the technique option.

Bumblebee and Flowers Birthday card =
Notes:
1. tan cardstock base is 5" x 7"; brick patterned yellow with gold foil cardstock = both are from Recollections/Michaels Arts and Crafts
2. flower print cardstock = Fancy Pants Designs or Simple Stories (I'll have to double check that)
3. pink cardstock was embossed with a folder from Cuttle Bug = the Cuttle Bug and the folder and many of goodies can from a very generous crafting friend from a FB group
4. inks used to enhance the embossing = Pear Tart (lime green), Dandelion (yellow), and Lilac Posies (magenta) = Memento Inks that were gifted from another very generous crafting friend
5. the bumblebee printed burlap piece = Crafter's Square (Dollar Tree store)
