Due to our partnership with Sizzix, we are pleased to be able to offer a test run of the Texture Boutique Embossing Machine in our North American markets. We have 4,000 available to be sold only while supplies last. If this product test goes well, we may offer the Texture Boutique again in the future. The Texture Boutique works with Textured Impressions Embossing Folders to transform ordinary cardstock, paper, metallic foil, or vellum into an embossed, textured masterpiece. This machine embosses only; it does not die cut. Because this is a product test, the Texture Boutique is not branded with the Stampin' Up! logo. It comes in Sizzix packaging and is the same color and design that is sold in stores. We recommend you read the included instructions before using the Texture Boutique and that you pass the same recommendation on to customers who purchase it.
'Tis the season of giving, and the Texture Boutique makes a wonderful gift for anyone who wants to create their own elegant embossed art. To help you with your gift-giving needs, we're offering a special value bundle that saves you $5.90. If you prefer, you can also purchase the Texture Boutique alone. Looking for stocking stuffers? Pick up some additional embossing folders.

When I stumbled across this technique, I was shocked that I had never tried it before. Yes, I have used DTP on the edges of my cards, but never to create a background like this. If you look close, you can see the "wiggle" movements I made while dragging the ink pad across the paper. I used the 2012-2014 In Colors on these cards. I had fun creating them. I usually on make two of each card. I made three of these and a fourth using the same technique.
Enjoy you day.
Until next time....Buzzz you later,

Let me start off by saying that I CASEd the layout of this card from someone. I have been doing a good job at keeping track of who has been inspiring my creativity. I can't remember the creator of this sketch.
I love the way this card turned out. The stamp set is retired but I still love it. When I looked through my inventory of stamps, I noticed that I don't have very many two-step stamp sets. I will have to remedy that problem. LOL
