This sketch gave me an idea for using this embossing Folder by Sizzix. It is about 4x6, so too large for the A2 cards I normally make. I embossed on Kraft cs, then cut the main panel. This left a piece on each end - not quite right for the corners that peak out. I just cut some triangles, making sure that each had a bit of the embossed part that would show - a bit of fence or part of the tree. It is a technique I will use again - though I need to make sure the triangles lineup a bit better! Added: Cheery Lynn dragonflies, black gems, bits of gold lace.

Great embossing. Thanks for sharing with us at SBC.
Great embossing! Really gives a nice muted tone to your kraft paper. Thanks for entering my the fall themed challenge at The House That Stamps Built.
Thank you for sharing your creation with us at The Kraft Journal!
Oooo . . . so fun!! I LOVE that you let the embossing folder be the main panel. This one is fabulous, so it's perfect! Great idea about using triangles to give the illusion of a tilted second panel. Thanks for playing with The House That Stamps Built.
