This week's Ways To Use It Challenge was to use warm or cool colours, depending on our temperature at the moment. I love cool colours but had to go for the warm, seeing as it is Summer here! This is also to honour Sharon (Shendrian) who is the Queen this week. I love Sharon's cards and had a difficult time choosing between so many gorgeous cards! The card I did choose - WT396 Be Mine by shendrian at Splitcoaststampers
Sharon's looked so pretty in her colours and I liked the design. I kept the design the same, just added an embossed layer and, of course, used a different colour combo. I have had these gold flower stickers for some time, I layered 2 of them, added the flower centre, and adhered to the gold die cut foliage. I don't have a lot of gold accessories so I coloured the lacy circle die and pearls with a gold Stampin' Dazzle Marker.
Have a wonderful week as Queen, Sharon!
TFL!

It's lovely to see a warm card among the glut of cool ones! I love that gold embossed flower! The embossing and patterned paper really coordinate well. A wonderful card!

Sue, how lovely is your card! I just love the colors, and it is so nice to see some warm colors since I am enduring frigid winter weather right now! The touches of gold are so pretty as is that gorgeous flower! Thank you so much for honoring me with your card. You've made by "reign" extra special!
