What I like about using an embossing machine, is the different looks you can get from one design using different tehniques. I have used a small embosser and a leaf pattern embossing folder to make this card. I wanted a worn look and used ink on the folder and ran textured card through the machine to get the green background. I also ran through a number of both light and dark coloured cardstock, which I then coloured with either a metalic pencils (on the darker cardstock) and ink distressed the lighter cardstock. A great benefit to this card is that I know have some great leaves for other projects. I then stamped a sentiment on dark green cardstock with white ink.
