I had purchased the Happy birthday Cuttlebug folder a few weeks ago so decided to play with it today. I embossed it and then sanded it with an Emery board (I couldn't find any sand paper) I then embossed some little brass stencils I had in light blue and then a gold and sanded those also. There are 2 party hats and two presents (one in each color) and then a tag that says "for you". I put micro eyelets on them and then strung them from blue twine from Stampin' Up. I adhered some dark blue spiral clips on opposite corners and tied the twine to them. I spread the embossed items out and then adhered them since they tended to bunch together if I didn't adhere them. All in all I think this card turned out well. I used blue since I have tons of girlish cards but not many boyish ones.

Nice card. Did the cuttlebug do all of that embossing on one pass or did you have to do run the paper through the machine multiple times to get it to look like that?
The background was embossed all in one pass. There asre big folders that are sold for the cuttlebug (they are like 5 inches by 4 inches or so) that are perfect for card backgrounds. The only thing I did to the background was sand it.
Ooh, Danielle, that is beautiful!
