Hello everyone! I created this card for today's TLC, which was to add some glitter to embossing powder, and today's CAS challenge which was to use red and white.
I used the newly released Our Daily Bread designs stamps: Ornate Borders and Flowers, Ornate Frame Sentiments, and the matching dies: Ornate Borders and Flowers Dies. I also embossed my white panel with a Nellie Snellen ef....a relatively new toy!
I clear embossed my flower and added diamonds glitter to it, then I sponged on real red and wiped off the ink that resisted the embossing. I then heated it again to make it pop still more. Sorry I can't get the picture to show it, but it does sparkle. I thought with Valentines day just around the corner, it might be time to start on them, as I am just about done with Christmas cards! Yay!
Thanks so much for looking!!!

Oh, Grace, this is gorgeous! The red and white really are striking with your wonderfully layered dies, and I just love the beautiful "flower" and ribbon…and of course, the sentiment…so precious, sweet friend! (So I can guess who this is for, right…hehe!!)

These new ODBD stamps are so pretty and what you've done with them...gorgeous!! I love the crisp look of that red detail against the white and the bg embossing is perfect for a lovely Valentine!
