Double emboss

 

I've finally got around to making my entry for the current challenge at Let's Squash It to double emboss. On the challenge blog there are a few techniques to try and I went with using two embossing folders.

I've had this preloved typist EF for ages and spent far longer tracking it down. But I've never used it! It says memo at the top which I cut off and then there is a lot of space, which I have now filled with another cuttlebug EF thanks to this challenge.

I also tracked down more recently the October Afternoon stamps that complement the typist folder. I thought the RUSH stamp indicated something being late so I used a lawn fawn stamp to make this a belated birthday/any occasion card. 

I used a TH typewriter stamp across the top stamped in blueprint DI. I also brushed the same colour over the embossed card together with some Peacock feathers DI.

Finally, I remembered I had these unused tab dies and thought they fitted the theme together with the paper clip and pin from a CC die set.

As I have used two unused items I am also entering into this months NBUS challenge.
