Time for some fun stamping...I have finished the order of twenty cards to be delivered tomorrow and needed a few general cards to go with them...I think I have eye strain from all the colouring of images over the past 3 weeks - 50 in all!! So I thought embossing would be a nice change. I have not inked up this Flourishes image before and I have to say, it makes a lovey card so easily! I sponged around the edges and also in the middle, adding a flower, which was part of a RAK from my friend Pam (aka pam124) and added a button! This was layered on paper from Memory Box and knotted ribbon was added - this was also from Pam (aka pam124) .

My Linda, this is outrageously beautiful and oh so elegant. Love your gold and the embossed swirls. Great ribbon treatment and colour to match. Hugs, fine work my friend.

Oh, Linda, I really love this card. Wow, you've been so busy. It's funny to see the change after looking at all the Emerson gal cards. This is beautiful. Love the embossed image and you put the ribbon and flower to great use that I sent!! The button in the center of flower looks great too!!! Wonderful job. I'm going to have to finish the rest later as it's summer break here and my son calls of me!!! TFS Linda!!

LOVE this! Wow- your chocolate embossing is totally elegant. Your gifts from Pam look great on this- like they were made for this card.

This is one of my favorites you have done LL! Probably because I love browns. I love the design here too! Next time make a bunch of these! No coloring!
