Double embossing

This fortnight at Bee Crafty our challenge is 'Embossing'. We want to see your embossed creations and of course a digi image too. The design team have come up with some fab ideas and some great tips too so please take a look at their creations. We also have to say goodbye to the very lovely Elaine who sadly has had to step down due to other commitments, so sorry to see you go Elaine. Here's my embossed creation:

 
I found a technique new to me called double embossing over at The Cuttlebug Spot, if you haven't tried it before, it's certainly worth a go and there's a fab tutorial over there too. I used 'Seated Bunny', I absolutely love this little fella, his expression does it for me!

 
I'm joining in with these challenges too:
I followed some tips from the rest of the design team on faux stitching from our last challenge for this one as I wasn't overly pleased with my 'shabby chic' look last time! I used a matt pad this time to pierce the holes neatly and then drew in the stitches with a white gel pen. I also added some stitched ribbon over some plain grosgrain ribbon - just to be sure! I kept seated bunny plain and simple with just the two colours and then rounded off all the corners to match the embossed frame.

Can't wait to see what you create.
Hugs
Victoria
