I needed to make a quick card for a friend today; however, when I stamped the tree top, I felt like it was missing something. I thought about cutting it out and embossing it, but then I had a different idea. I embossed a piece of white cardstock with my Cuttlebug Swiss Dot embossing folder. I inked up my tree top image with dark green ink and then stamped it on the swiss dot embossing. Then I stamped it directly on the tree trunk ~ INSTANT TEXTURE!
EASY PEASY!
