New Paper to play with!

I bought a new paper pad, Stationer's Desk by Prima Marketing. It has lovely rich red roses, I just love it! Here a two cards I've made with this paper.

The first was a simple card that only took a few minutes and the second took a little longer as it takes time to place each piece perfectly! 

I also learnt a new trick with cutting and embossing dies thanks to my Mum! See the difference!

The first one is just cut as normal through my Big Shot, and the next one I used a rubber embossing mat, I still can't believe how gorgeous it looks! I borrowed the die and can't remember what brand it is, but I will find out! Thanks for looking, have a lovely day :)
