Cuttlebug & Caardvark Challenges

I decided to combine two Challenges into one with this card.
I loved the sketch from Caardvarks and decided that it was the perfect vehicle to display several of my favourite Cuttlebug embossing folders for their challenge this week.
I am particularly fond of the Swiss dots folder as it can easily be used to extend coverage over larger areas. This is also true with the Hearts from the cut and emboss combo. As for the Divine Swirls... well they're just divine!

  1. Hi Chrissie! Very cool card - Divine Swirls is my favourite too. The lemon & blue colour combination is beautiful - very soft. The swirl looks really good too.
    Peace & Love
