New DT Member for One Stop Crafts

Yay its Saturday and I have some more exciting news to share! I have been chosen as one of the new Design Team for One Stop Crafts Challenges! Thanks so much Shelley and I am proud to be part of your fab team!

For my first challenge at One Stop Crafts the theme is heat embossing.  Now I have to say that heat embossing is not a technique that I use very often but once I dug my heat gun and embossing powders out I had great fun and think I will be doing some more heat embossing!  I have heat embossed my LOTV sentiment and the gold swirls.  Here is my card using a gorgeous image by our sponsor.
