The card today has been made by Val known to many as Aquarius.
The way Val has used two dies to make the frame and emboss both at the same time is a new idea to me. She has managed to emboss both edges of the frame which I think looks great. I couldn't work this out, so as I encourage you to do, I asked and this is how it is achieved:
It's actually very like my tutorial yesterday on making photo corners, but instead of embossing freehand, Val embossed both pieces in the Bug.
I also love the way the ribbon wraps round the frame giving another different take. Great card, Val! Thanks for sharing your idea with us, and I pleased to put your card in the Follwers Gallery.
Why not pop over and say hello to Val, she is a very talented crafter with a very interesting blog, and if you are a lover of Elusive Images - you will also find that Val is too!
