Hi Crafters.
Dry or Heat embossing?
That is the question we are asking over at the As You Like It challenge blog today.
We'd love to see your makes showing us which technique is your favourite out of the two and a short explanation as to why.
Here's my card for today showing this gorgeous butterfly embossing folder. I love dry embossing as there are so many beautiful folders out there now allowing us to achieve wonderful texture and interest on our projects.
