Create a striking greetings card featuring a beautiful embossed background with a vintage garden scene. Using the Grunge Splash embossing folder on decorative paper, you'll achieve stunning texture and dimension that brings depth to the floral imagery in soft yellows, greens and greys. This technique works wonderfully to add an artistic, distressed finish to patterned backgrounds.
