			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The moment I laid eyes on the <a href="http://www.sizzix.com/category/Texture+Boutique+Embossing+Machine" target="_blank">Texture Boutique by Sizzix</a>, I fell in love, even before knowing what it does. But once I actually used it, I realized it was more than just an adorable purse shaped tool, it was actually a really great way to create quick and easy cards. Just like the name suggests, this cute little purse adds texture by dry embossing a pattern or shape onto cardstock, thin metal, and even acrylic. For instructions how to make this cute card, visit the <a href="http://www.sizzix.com/blogs?artist=1" target="_blank">Sizzix.com blog</a>.</p>

<p>The Texture Boutique, however, goes beyond cards. There are dozens of different texture folders that are perfect for scrapbook layouts. The size of the folders are perfect for creating page embellishments, titles, photomats,  journaling cards, and more. For this photo mat, I added glitter to some of the embossed polka dots to give it added sparkle.</p>
