Welcome back, friends! We've made it to the end of another week! I am definitely ready for the weekend. What do you have planned?
One of my favorite things about the weekend--a new challenge at CAS-ual Fridays! Now before you think I've gotten stuck on last week's Top of the Class challenge, let me introduce this week's theme: embossing!
You can choose heat or dry embossing (or both!) on your clean and simple design, just be sure to link it up for your chance to be a Guest Designer at CAS-ual Fridays and win a gift certificate to use at Simon Says Stamp.
My Paper Smooches stamps have been getting a lot of use lately. :) For this card, I paired images from Smarty Pants with the small pocket from WPlus9's A Pocketful.
The white "stitching" on the pocket is heat embossed, and I used PTI's Book Print impression plate on the white panel to go with the school theme. The pocket was given some added texture with the Linen & Canvas impression plate, too.
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (Pure Poppy, Enchanted Evening), WPlus9 Design Studio (White)
Stamps: Paper Smooches (Smarty Pants), WPlus9 Design Studio (A Pocketful)
Ink: Memento (Tuxedo Black), Versamark, Copic markers
Tools: Papertrey Ink (Book Print, Linen & Canvas impression plates), WPlus9 Design Studio (pocket die), corner rounder
Other: Filigree (embossing powder)
I absolutely love embossing, so I can't wait to see all of the inspiring designs in the gallery this week. I hope you'll join us. :)
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend!

This is a perfect teacher thank you card. You can never have too many of those. Great choice with the embossing.
Great idea with the embossed stitching on the pocket. Cute use of those PS stamps!
What a great idea to put the school supplies in the pocket, Christina! They look so sweet :)
Fabulous teacher thank you, Christina! Love the examples of embossing you chose and am glad to see yet another way to use the WPlus9 pocket!
Your school cards have been awesome!

Love your card! Love the embossing and the dimension it adds to the beautiful card! Love the pocket full of "school supplies"! Adorable!
So much fun Christina! I love visiting your site because your cards always seem so finished to me:) You have a knack for putting all those details together. For this card, I really love how you added the unembossed strip for the sentiment and made the center panel smaller so more of the red card stock is showing:) Love it!
Love all the bright colours, Christina! Love the pocket and all the stuff inside them:) Great details
This teacher thank-you card is just as cute as can be! I love that pocket full of goodies! Cute!
