Cuttlebug Be Inspired 19

Good morning folks! Welcome to this week's Cuttlebug Be Inpired challenge brought to by the fabulous design team on the Cuttlebug Challenges Blog. It's a fun one and I'm sure your gonna love it and want to give it a try.

We are embossing acetate this week. I love this technique and have loved it since the very first moment I put acetate in my embossing folder and ran it through my cuttlebug last year. I even had a few cards published in last years Spring edition of Take Ten featuring this technique. Hmmmm............... maybe that's why I love it so much!

Dear hubby gifted me with the Mindy's Zoo stamp set for Valentines Day, so I thought it was only appropriate that I use it on my card.

He also gifted me with the Welcome Baby Embossing Folder and Die Cut. I just love those cute little hearts

. Here is a closeup so you can get a better look.
I even embossed the giraffe after coloring him with my Copic markers. Isn't he cute? The papers are from Nana's Nursery It's A Boy. The back oval is recessed using dimentionals to make it look like a window. All the ovals were cut using my Coluzzle. The sentiment was made with the Welcome Baby die cut.
