Faux Wood Carving Technique

Happy Friday! 
Check out these cards! 
Which do you like better?
THIS- the left- embossed side?
OR
THAT- the right- debossed side? 
 
I did the Faux Wood Carving Technique using the

Aren't they neat! 
This is the EMBOSSED side with the flowers/leaves sticking upward.
This is the DEBOSSED side with the flowers/leaves going downward. 
 
How did I do it? 
*EMBOSSED the Very Vanilla card stock.
*Then with the embossed side upward, I scored every 1/2" to make the lines onto the cardstock, 
using my Simply Scored Scoring Tool
*Then "very lightly" drag ink pads over the embossed flowers/leaves.
*Use Crumb Cake, then Pecan Pie & then Early Espresso ink pads.
*Add Gems 
Here are the supplies & measurements.
