Daydream Medallions

Hello again

I am using the Daydream Medallions again today. After stamping with versamark, I embossed with Gold Embossing powder and set with the heat tool, then cut with the co-ordinating Floral Frames Framelits then layered them using Dimensionals. The base card was embossed with Fancy Fan folder.



For the Happy Birthday I stamped the sentiment then cut it 27mm high. The length was longer than needed so I could punch the ends. The photo below shows how I did this with the Decorative Label punch. I punched one end at a time.
