Hello friends!
I am popping in to share a Clean and Simple Card with you.
Today's card serves as an example how you can stretch those expensive frame dies!
I am using Lovely Border for this purpose.

The main component of this card is all that background, focal point and sentiment.
The darling image of the bear comes from "Key to My Heart" Stamp set (Penny Black).
The neatest thing about this card is all that dry-embossed heart frame!
When I first got the frame die, I left them as it and used the tan embossing mat under and ran the entire thing through my Grand Caliber. You can do this with all the die cut machine as long as you have a Tan Embossing Mat.
You are then left with these amazing dry-embossed patterns from using the dies!
With this, do you think the dies' cost is more justified? I think so.😁
I hope today's post prompt you to look at your frame dies.
The die frames with stitching, lines or any small patterns will be most suitable for this purpose.
Simple arrange the dies ( however you like it) and adhere a piece of Washi Tape to secure when dry-embossing.

Sweet card! Love the embossed design and the cute bear!
Wonderful results using these dies for embossing. Cute bear too.
have been dry embossing lately and liking the finished project! And I agree 100% in order to justify the expense of some dies, we must use them in a creative way and dry embossing is an excellent example!
OH, be still me heart! You must have created this for me...all that luscious dry embossing. *SIGH*! The perfect framework for that adorable bear.
I always forget about this 'stretcher,' Virginia; thanks so much for such a cute reminder! Darling card. Happy 2019. Bev
