High Hopes Challenge 13 - Dry Embossing
Woo Hoo.. it's Sunday and time for a new High Hopes challenge! This week Kimmie is asking us to use Dry Embossing on our cards. I just love my Cuttle Bug and the fun effect and texture you can add to cards. I used the dragon stamp "Ace" and he is such a cool dude! You can buy him in two different sizes. I am sending this card to Tina's Grandfather and if you haven't seen my earlier post about this.. please find it here. Don't forget that if you enter our challenge you have a chance to win some yummy HH stamps!
I received some awards yesterday from my lovely friends Karin and Agnes. Thank you so much for thinking of me!
Have a great Sunday and see you tomorrow.. I'm so excited as i'll be showing you my first DT cards and sneak peaks of the new releases for Pink Cat Studio.

Goomorning dear,
another fabulous card.
Love the amazing coloured dragon. Matches the happy coloured papers perfectly.
It's still very cold overhere and we still have snow.
today we are going to the pub with my parents and my sister.
The girls are going ice-skating for the last time and after that they can play at a playground and we can have lots of beers (I'm on coca-cola, have to drive).
Looking forward in seeing your Pink Cat cards.
