Cuttlebug technique- Emboss Resist

Oh how I have missed crafting and blogging :) I have actually done some crafting but not had time to blog about it yet :) The first card I used a new technique called Emboss Resist.
I found it on Pinterest and I have wanted to try this technique for awhile!
This was the first thing I went to when designing my card for my Girl Friend crafting time!
