Okay I read that twice... Toilet paper? But my what a super result! Love it! As we are in lockdown and stupid people like to clear the supermarket shelves, toilet paper is a valuable commodity here Lol! Have a great day Christine

This technique using toilet paper gives a great result Christine and a brilliant script background to your prettily coloured berry branch. I haven't tried this yet but will be giving it a go. As Ros says as soon as there are restrictions the first thing to be difficult to find is toilet paper. I think some people possibly wont have to buy any for months to come...lol. x

Beautiful! The cherries really stand out against the white. I'm on my way over to Magenta to see what you did with the toilet paper.

A great embossed background, Christine! I love how you've used the distressed edge to add texture and those red berries are awesome! I'm really impressed with your fussy cutting!

so beautiful Christine, I think I have a similar embossing folder, don't think I have ever used it. Thanks for the beautiful inspiration. xx

Karen Dunbrook said...

I agree...so beautiful. I like the eb bkg and the distressing, adds a lot of interest mf.
Hope all is well with you.

Your berry sprig looks so pretty over the embossed white background Christine!

Fabulous! I didn't know about the spritzing (read that on Magenta). Bet this would work with napkins, too. Making a note. Your cutting of those beautiful berries is very precise!

Amazing card Christine. Who knew that toilet paper could look this good??!! :) Love the script embossing with the berry branch over top. Amazing fussy-cutting skills, my friend! xx

Gorgeous, Christine. It’s simple yet so striking. Love it!
Need to give this TP technique a try.

Great effect and love the embossing with the pretty colour pop from the sprig x. What a fun technique too x.

This is so pretty, I have been meaning to have a go at that toilet paper embossing technique but just can't seem to get round to it. This is a lovely example xx
