Puzzle Embossing

Technique Junkies has another fun embossing technique called Puzzle Embossing in their August/September 2012 edition.  Emboss cardstock using the CTMH Chevron Embossing folder.  Carefully cut the cardstock into 5 pieces, keeping the pieces in loose order.  Lightly ink each piece withe a sponge or the direct-to-paper technique.  Keep the pieces in order and return them to their place after inking.  After inking, flip the pieces over, keeping them in the same order.  Tape all of the "puzzle" pieces together.  Place adhesive on the back of the taped pieces and glue to another piece of cardstock.  I wrapped them with Teal Shimmer Trim, before adhering to the card base.  The flower was created with a scalloped circle punch and Skylark's Assortment.
