Introducing another Cuttlebug Embossing Folder!

It's Wednesday, and that means Cuttlebug Challenge day.... and today's challenge included three colors....orange, mint green, and pea green ...AND something from nature, as well as the exciting launch of another of Provo Craft's brand new Cuttlebug Embossing Folders being showcased over at Cuttlebug Challenge!
Here is my first entry for this week's challenge...




I embossed clear acrylic, turned it over and colored the impressions with Copic markers, leaving feathery markings on the owl. I embossed the green cardstock with Cuttlebug's Spots and Dots Folder, folding it over the top, and tying it with natural cording. The feathers are real, purchased from Walmart. I typed my own original quote on my computer, layering it with cardstock, and adhering it to the acrylic under the feathers on the front, so the glue dot is hidden. This was a very simple card to create. I hope you will do one, too!
Check in on Friday for another take on this same folder, as I present a tutorial video!
Until then.....
Happy Crafting!!
