Scrap and Stamp Saturday Challenge: Embossing

Hello stamping friends!!

Well I think the black cloud that was hanging over my head the past week is finally going away! After my PC broke, my store website went down twice, my wireless went down for a short time, and my car broke, I've had two good days with no major issues! I think I'm on the mend!! LOL 

But I am looking forward to the weekend!! By the time this posts, I am hoping to still be asleep in my comfy bed having wonderful dreams!! *Sigh* I love to sleep in!! And since my husband was out of town for 3 days and is now home...I have earned the right to sleep in this week! That makes it even better!!

So, now it's time for another Scrap and Stamp Saturday Challenge!! I am really impressed that I made 3 layouts this week! I am really starting to get faster with scrapping and it is so much fun going through the kids old photos!! 

This week's challenge is: Embossing!!

That can be heat or dry embossing. 

DT Paola created an awesome tutorial on creating custom dry embossed embellishments to add to a layout (or card for that matter). So make sure to check it out on the challenge blog!

We are sponsored this week by Sassy Studio Designs. Wow! They have some fun digital stamps. 

They offered to send us a digi to use on our layout. I had a hard time choosing since they have so many sassy and fun stamps! But, considering I mainly scrap my kids, I needed to choose one of the more conservative digis (if you know what I mean)! But that wasn't a problem...they have an adorable line of Princesses, too! And I found one perfect for a layout...

Now, I would normally have used "heat embossing" for my choice in embossing, but since I used a digital stamp and not a rubber stamp, I had to add a dry embossed element to stay with the embossing theme. 

This stamp is called Little Honey's - Princess Aurora Honey 

These pictures are from our first time having a Character Meal with the Disney Princesses at Walt Disney World. These pictures were taken in 2005 when Ryan was about 6 months and Ansley was 2 1/2 years old. Oh so she was excited to meet the Princesses! And Sleeping Beauty was her favorite one for a long time. 

Of course, living only 3 hours away from Disney World, we have gone to Disney often since then and have had Character meals almost every time. Although, I think we may be growing out of that phase.

The sketch is from Sketchy Thursday this week. 

 
 The left side...

 

Sorry for the glare on the photos. It's hard to photograph photos! Especially when it's pouring rain and dark outside!

The right side...

 

Can you see the smile on Ansley's face in the top right photo? She was soooo excited to meet Sleeping Beauty!! That smile is genuine pure joy!!

The papers are MME "Paris & Co". I used a cuttlebug swirl embossing folder on the burgundy strip, Tim Holtz Adage Tickets, Crown charm, Jewel Brads, Silver Spacer, Prima Swirl, Thickers Glitter chipboard stickers, and lace.

Now it's your turn! Let's see your layout using some embossing! Just remember, you must use at least one stamp on your layout to be entered into the drawing from the sponsor.

Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!
