This month we would like to see some embossing on your cards. It can either be heat embossing or dry embossing as our cue card suggests. If in doubt , as always see our DT's examples below for guidance.

Please don't forget to use your Florals as always and as the MAIN feature on your card.
Only SIX other challenges allowed as well as our own.PLEASE note this is one of our most frequent reasons for not choosing cards.
Also please take a few minutes to read our rules in the tab above as you may lose out on winning a prize this time too.
