Four on Friday-Embossing Folders

It's time for another Four on Friday! My friend, Alicia and I have a collaboration series called "Four on Friday". Every few Fridays, we will be sharing 4 different projects using the same technique, tool or type of product. To see previous Four on Friday posts, click HERE!

This month we're pulling out our embossing folders to make our four cards!  I *may* have a few to choose from! 

For my first card I just had to color up a cute piggy from a set from La La Land Crafts that I just got called This Little Piggy. So darn adorable and fun!! So many times I reach for an embossing folder I always just emboss white cardstock so today I wanted to do some other colors! I chose a light blue for this Clouds embossing folder to go with my piggy!

My next card I used an old kit I had from Paper Makeup Stamps along with some sweet stamps from La La Land Crafts~Afternoon Tea Marci and Tea Time Kittens. I paired a piece of designer paper with some embossed cardstock. The embossing adds just the right touch!
