Celebrating Gold!

This was a difficult challenge for me...but I finally got it!

I am playing the Paper Smooches 'GOLD' challenge today. 

I decided to use the sentiment from the 'scripted sayings' stamp set to create a background and the cocktail 'wise dies' glasses ( cut from shimmery white card stock) as the focal point. 

the god heart is dry embossed using  a Cuttlebug folder and I heat embossed two gold stars from the same stamp set onto the vellum. I finished off with some gold and white sequins.

I just love the way it has turned out.

I am also playing 'the Paper Players sketch challenge' with this card as well as the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday 'Anything goes' Challenge.

Thanks so much for stopping by...

Have a great day!

Inspired by Pinterest

 I am taking an idea from Ardyth-Percy-robb to make a card inspired by a photo on her Pinterest board.

 

This was a wedding invitation for my niece and I made 35 of them in 24 hours!!! That was quite a feat and the whole family pitched in!

I made the flowers by punching scalloped circles from red and pink vellum and layering them. I also crumpled them for texture.

I held them together with black brads from Recollections.

The background was using my Cuttlebug embossing folder, the sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp "Tilted Banner stamp and die set". the dragon flies were punched from vellum too.

I had so much fun making this card and it was much appreciated by all who received it.

I'm linking this to Virginia's view "All things embossed" Challenge.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a good evening!
