Inlaid Technique Part 1

I've been playing around with the "Inlaid Technique" recently. It's a great technique. You punch out some shapes, glue them to a whisper white layer and then run it through the bigshot using the Square Lattice embossing folder which is in our current mini catalogue (page 17).

We will be doing this technique at Creative Card Group at Bel Air Baptist Church on Thursday 31st March at 7.30.

Here are some sites that I got my inspiration from:-

Kerin Sylvester over at Stamping 411

Kathy at Stamping Still

Nicole Derendorf
