First, let me explain Softy White cs. This has a layer of fibrous felt on one side. I love the way it looks, dry embossed with a folder. For this card, though, I wet the folder, sprinkled it with Pixie Powders, then put the Softy White cs in the folder and ran it through the Big Shot. Let it dry, then trimmed the panel. Mounted the panel onto metallic green card base. Die cut the cross from the same metallic green cs and added it to the card. I took a die cut Believe word that was silver linen texture cs and sponged it heavily with Opal Polish in Parakeet- a lovely green. Added the word to the bottom of the card. Embellished with green mirror Dazzle Dots.
I absolutely LOVE this ef, and the way it looks when the cs is wet with Pixie Powders and run through the Big Shot. The card has a shimmer that I didn't quite catch in the photo.

We can see hints of the shimmer, and I think we will know how hard it is to capture. Lovely ef, perfectly paired with the cross. The dazzle dots look super, especially as accents on the cross.

Pat, the card is beautiful in the picture so I can imagine how wonderful it must look IRL with all the shimmer and glimmer. That is a wonderful EF and the cross fits the center frame section beautifully...and it is a beautiful cross. That Believe die cut is pretty wonderful too. Fabulous card.

Beautiful effect with the Softy White cs and Pixie powders! I love the shimmer background and the treatment on the die cut sentiment as well. Lovely card!
