Hi Friends,
This is my Reminder card to let you know that you have until the 24th February to join us for this month's CAS Mix Up Challenge.
I used the Floral Layering Stencil from Tim Holtz, stamping the Versamark twice after each layer of Gold embossing powder was applied and set which gave a beautiful smooth finish. I did have to do a bit of work to remove stray and bits of powder that weren't in the right place with a pointed cutting tool and rubber. I also stamped the sentiment and Gold embossed and then cut the pieces of card with metal dies from Mamma Elephant. I repeated these steps for the inside and finished the front with some Metallic Gold Pearls.
How I prepared my stencil before stamping so I could only use the parts I required.
Cool Tools: Big Shot, Mama Elephant Femme Frames Dies, Tim Holtz THS077 Floral Layering Stencil, Embossing Buddy, Ranger Princess Gold E/Powder, Heat Gun, Misti, Dble Sided Tape
so pretty with the gold embossing on black. Love the card :)
