Hi, it's Jo here with a super-quick look at how I created
 the textured background for my October challenge card.

As this was my first attempt at using Dreamweaver embossing paste
I carefully followed the instructions on the tub!

I taped the stencil from Memory Box onto my
older cutting mat which I use for messy projects.
I had already die-cut my card base.

Then, I used a palette knfe to pick up a small amount of paste
and spread it across the central area of the card base.
I returned the excess paste to the tub and removed the stencil
while the paste was still wet.


I left the card base to dry for the rest of the afternoon
and then it was ready to decorate.
This was a fun technique to try and I love the gorgeous texture it created!
