"THOUGHTS & PRAYERS" INLAID EMBOSSING

Uh oh!  I think I have another favorite--one that ranks right up there with square cards--and it's the Inlaid Embossing technique--and it's on a square card.  Actually, I had not planned to make this a square card but, when I was trying to decide on the color for the card, I just happened to find this Soft Suede card already cut, scored, and ready to go.  I had planned to tie a pretty satin bow around the top of the card, but I must have used all of that ribbon.  :-(  Instead, I found a snippet of Rose Red seam binding lying in the ribbon holder and decided to "ruche" it since it was too short to wrap, knot, or tie in a bow.  How about that?  Twice, during the making of this card, I was able to use some leftover cuts!  Stampin' Up! products used to create this card include Soft Suede, Rose Red, Pink Pirouette, and River Rock card stock, "Thoughts & Prayers" stamp set, Rose Red seam binding, pearls, Sizzix Scallop Square die, Large Oval, Scallop Oval, and Itty Bitty Shapes punches, and Finial Press embossing folder.
