  11. These envelope makers are a real boon. I have one too and wonder how I ever managed without it. Your embossing looks good and your previous card white on white as well. Just have to also mention I think the carved Pumpkin by your husband is brilliant. Thank you for joining in at Crafty Hazelnuts Extra this month. Hugs Mrs A. (GDT).
