Tips from the show

• You can create a white-on-white effect by using white ink on white card for a subtle, elegant look.
• The embossing folder works beautifully on its own and looks like a shop-bought card even before adding other elements.
• You can punch a hole in the embossed piece and spray it with perfume to create a scented gift tag to include inside the card.
