Embossing with The Paper Shelter


Such a sweet image from The Paper Shelter for this card, she is called "Let's Go To Sleep"  I have coloured her up using just Prisma Pencils, blending the colours into each other using short soft strokes.  It has given the image a soft textured look.  I have also embossed the panels on my card with some cuttlebug folders because our challenge at The Paper Shelter Challenge is to use EMBOSSING of ANY KIND on your project.  I have used some gorgeous MME papers from a 6x6 pad teamed with some flowers and organza ribbon.

I am also entering this card in the following challenges....
