Instead of embossing your cardstock and then brushing your ink pad over its raised edges, coat the inside of your embossing folder with your ink, and then emboss the cardstock. You get better coverage and it takes less than no time to finish!

This is gorgeous Deborah :o). I think I will have to try the inking/embossing tip.

I have ignored my embossing folders for too long! Love the idea of coating the folder with ink before embossing. This is a classic card, Deborah; love it.
