Just had to do this again, now that the shock has worn off, and my DH is able to sit up and take nourishment after seeing the iron. He now understands that ALL appliances relate to stamping, or they are disregarded.
For some reason, this paper is VERY absorbent....the color even got UNDER the clear embossing. I kinda like the way it looks.
This of course started out to be RED, but I guess I used too much water. Just pretend it's RED, for my sake. Oh, and the bar and brads across the ribbon at the top, well there's one at the bottom too...sorta hidden by the bow from this angle.
Thanks for looking.

lol...love your iron comment! This is a beautiful card with such stunning colors, even if it didn't turn out as red as you would have liked...I love it. Fabulous job.

Yeah, the blue got under me EP first time round. I liked the look too.
That's a really cool ribbon treatment too, must remember that for the rare times I use wide ribbon!
