inspired me to try the gold embossing on Kraft (Crumb Cake) cardstock. It's a little time consuming, but yields a very elegant result for a special card. Well worthwhile.
The bird is stamped on Very Vanilla with craft Chocolate Chip and embossed with clear EP. I masked the the branch part of the bird image before stamping the medallion in Pink Pirouette, and colored the branch with markers. The bird was stamped and embossed again, cut out and popped up on dimensionals.
The Fifth Avenue flower is gold embossed on cardstock vellum, colored and shaded on both sides with pink markers, then adhered over another flower stamped on white text weight paper which makes the image opaque and pop more. The flower's center is accented with gold glass glitter adhered with a quickie glue pen.
The gold brads are heat embossed with gold glitter EP, and the Wild Wasabi die cut leaves are sprayed with Frost White shimmer spray. The vanilla and Crumb Cake layers are lightly sponged on the edges with Crumb Cake ink.
