All That Glitter Is Gold!

Good Afternoon!  The sun is shining the temps are rising and the snow is melting.  Yippee!

Today's card will be entered into the Challenges at Power Poppy, Go For The Gold and Simon Says Monday, B Is For.....

 
I used the Hydrangeas stamp set by Flourishes.  I decided to gold emboss this image on Vellum, I am still always amazed how well Vellum takes the heat for this technique.  I also made a gold embossed border for the background layered piece, an easy trick!  Trio Butterfly Punch by EK Success, top layer is also Vellum topped with 3 small Adhesive Pearls that were colored with a Copic Marker.  Corner Tabs, Shear Ribbon and Black Enamel Brads for accents.    

 
Thanks so much for stopping by!
 
Enjoy~~

  1. First of all I love everything about this creation. The hydrangea has got to be your flower. It is beautiful in gold and I didn't think about using the Flourishes stamps that I have. I love the little butterfly, a nice touch with the two layers. I love the layers and the vellum and
    that you finished the inside. I pinned it!
