Your work is amazing! This is my second tutorial that I have watched of your work (the first the mini book which I made right away and gave to my DD with money tucked in the pockets). Love this embossing technique, I am not a scrapper but your tutorials are hard to resist on becoming one. Thank you for the work you do for our beloved soldiers.

I mentioned your tutorial on my blog since I used that technique but didn't make a tutorial for it. I am so thankful for your talent! Taking a page from Romeo and Juliet is just such a great idea!

Love the inked embossed card. Could you put a little repositional adhesive on the back of the paper and stick it to the top of the cuttlebug embossing folder? This way it would not slip around.
I loved this technique so much that I used it this weekend to make some Hallloween cards. I used the Cuttlebug spider web folder. I love the effect!
Love this card you your tutorial. Great job!
My inky folders never look this good, fabulous tutorial, thank you for sharing, not sure I would rip up Shakespeare though!
