Butterfly Thank you - Double Embossing 2

This is the second card I made yesterday using the double embossing technique - this time using 2 different embossing folders.  Since I could not find  a tutorial for this method I will provide a step by step explanation.

The two embossing folders I used were the Fancy Fan Folder and the Oval from the Designer Frames set of 2.
1.  Cut 3 pieces of the cardboard ( from the DSP pack) - approximately  4.25 by 5.5 inches.
2.  After deciding where I wanted the oval on my card, I used the Ovals framelits to cut an oval out of each piece of card board.  To make sure the ovals are in the same spot on each piece of cardboard, I marked the oval on the 2nd and 3rd piece with a pencil before cutting out the ovals.
3.  Adhere the 3 pieces together.
4.  Attach this with a temporary adhesive to the top of the Fancy Fan embossing folder.
5.  Place cardstock inside the embossing folder, and run through the Big Shot on the multipurpose platform- with all tabs closed and only one cutting plate.  This results in an embossed piece of cardstock with an unembossed oval.
6. Attach the 3 die cut ovals together and attach to the back of the Oval designer embossing folder.
7.  Place the oval embossing folder over the area that is blank
8.  Place on top of the multipurpose platform and with all tabs closed run it through the Big Shot.
This gives you the second embossed area in the middle of the fancy fan embossed area.

Framed Reindeer - Red Hot Stampers #55

I'm sore today from doing all that gardening yesterday - but glad that I got my geraniums inside.  There's still a lot of work to do outside, but the urgency to get it done is gone.  Today the forecast is for rain so I may not get too much done outside today.  That makes is a good day to replenish my supplies for the next craft sale in a week and a half, - and to make some cards.
This card is based on the sketch challenge with Red Hot Stampers here

Technique: 

The card base is Gumball Green layered with Very Vanilla.  The next designer paper layer is from Be of Good Cheer.

To make the panel behind the image, I took a 1 3/8" square punch and punched 4 different design pieces of Candlelight Christmas designer paper and attached them to Whisper White base.  Then I wrapped a Gumball Green stitched satin ribbon around the bottom 1/2 of this panel and added a bow.

I first embossed the oval designer frames folder on a piece of Whisper White card stock - then stamped the oval image from Joyous Celebration in Early Espresso.  Lastly the deer was stamped in the middle of that, and a dot of Cherry cobbler dazzling details was placed on its nost.

This white oval was matted with an Early Espresso oval die cut using the Ovals #2 die.  I applied tombo glue around the white frame and added Champagne glass glitter.

The image was attached to the card using dimensionals.
