HB, Joel

This is for a teen aged relative of a friend of mine - he hunts a lot so I used a hunting theme.  The stamp is pretty old - label says Embossing Arts.  I used a variety of papers, and some packing twine.  It is pretty slick, so I pulled it between my finger nails to soften it - worked well.  Now it is easier to tie.  The birthday embossing folder is a resent acquisition, from Embossalicious.  It is about 6x6 which provides some flexibility.  I highlighted the words with brown chalk.  The circle is raised on pop dots. I used Kraft for the main image and the bottom panel.
