Mission Embossable

Amy at Love to Crop has yet another amazing and fun challenge ~Embossable You....
 For this challenge, we have been requested to create a card, layout, or 3D project with EMBOSSING!!  This could be done with heat embossing or dry embossing -- If you don't have any heat embossing supplies or a Cuttlebug/Sizzix machine, Amy has suggested.... why not try adding some texture with a scoring tool or even a texture rubbing (remember the ones you might have done in elementary school???)...

For my card I used some goodies I received from an ebay purchase I made.  The seller sent me six pieces of black paper that had been embossed with Tim Holtz collection (tree).  I layered it onto white card stock and some designer paper from Oct 31 then cut a rectangle out and sandwiched a piece of vellum between the layers.  I stamped my images onto the vellum for the front.  Inside I used my InkadinkaCling stamp tree with gravestones, witch and cauldron.  Stampin' Up sets to get my bats and the sentiments.  I did heat emboss the sentiment on the front and the bats on the inside.  I stamped the cauldron image onto a piece of white card stock, colored the fire and logs with Stampin' Up pencils then blended them with a blending marker.  After drying I cut the fire and logs from the white card stock.  I then stamped the same cauldron image onto the designer paper then glued the piece I cut (fire and logs) from the white card stock to the DP.  I added stickles to give it even more dimension and I must admit it looks super cool!  The bats I stamped and as I said heat embossed them and cut them out.  I then curled the wings to make it seem as if they are in flight... eek creepy fun!  I added stickles to the witches eyes and the cats eyes as well as the green "foam" coming from the cauldron.  I took the pictures at night so I'm pretty sure the lighting just did not do the card justice so I will retake some pictures tomorrow morning after I get back from dropping off my Munchkin at school!  Thank you all for embracing me and tolerating my delinquency of late.  I will be away again soon because we finally have news that we may be DEFINITELY getting into the house Oct 21...eeeeek!!!  YEEEEAAAAY !  I don't know when we will have Internet so I'll be living off my iPhone for a while.. sniff, sniff, sniffle... but I will finally have a house so NO complaints.. I will miss you all and can't wait to get structure back!
