Embossing and Debossing together...plus another Christmas card

Hi there.  There's a fun new challenge this month at Let's Squash It...  Emboss/Deboss

The idea is to have both the embossed and debossed side of an embossing folder together on your card. 

I decided to use an edging folder to emboss and deboss on my square card - 

This is a little 4.25" square card.   I used a edger embossing folder and debossed at the top and embossed the bottom of the card.   I used a Poinsettia stamp (Kiwi Stamping Co- no longer in business) I stamped it twice and coloured with Copic markers in a dark red and a light green.  I added Spectrum Noir sparkle pen to the red petals.   After fussy cutting, I layered the two.  The sentiment is from Gina K's Holiday Tapestry.

And while I had the Holiday Tapestry set out, I did another Thumping card 

I used a slightly darker grey ink on this one.  Altenew's Grey Denim and then used Azurite (dark blue) for the thumping.  I also used the same dark blue ink to add the sentiment.  A few silver sequins to finish. 

Thanks for stopping by today.  It's been a good day!  Made two Feijoa Loaves - one for us and one to deliver to Grace and her Mum and Dad.   For those of you who don't know what a Feijoa is....

they are a fruit... we have two trees and this was three days worth.  They are a very perfumed sweet fruit.  A bit of an acquired taste - one I love!   As does our Princess.  She loves going out the back to where the trees are and check if there is any fruit.  It drops of the tree when it's ripe.
