My card is a side folded 5"w x 7"h and the embossing folder (Sizzix
"Snowflake") I wanted to use was a 4x6 and the snowflake fell in the
wrong area... so I just cut my folder apart and taped it closed on the
opposite side, embossed the area I wanted through my machine, moved the
design over a bit and used my rubber mallet to finish the embossing.
Repeated the process for the bottom section.
Stamped the baubles (Lili of the Valley) with Versafine Black Onyx and colored with Distress markers. Used the same markers to create the linear design.
Wrote in my word "Joy" using a 6.0 Pilot Parallel pen and one of their Black cartridges in a funky style of lettering I've been playing with recently. Then stamped the words on either side of it ("Textured Words" sentiments (Quietfire Design) with the Black. Added some Ritz micro fine glitter "Gold".

Great card! You are very brave to cut apart your embossing folder (I don't think I would dare!) but I love the effect you got with it. It's perfect for your card. And it's pretty amazing that you did your own lettering. Awesome job! Thanks for playing with CSAYL
