I don't often get time on a Sunday to make cards and participate in the Featured Stamper challenge, but I was glad to have some time today as it's Sallie (hobbydujour)! What a wonderful gallery, Sallie, each and every card is a work of art. I chose this beautiful card to case:
I changed the images to leaves which are embossed with copper and gold. I also sprinkled gold embossing powder on and heated. Instead of brayering I sponged the bg with Ranger Distress inks. I had done a square scored frame like Sallie's beautiful one and then at the last minute I smudged ink across the base! Didn't have time to do again, so I decided to go with this embossed gold bg. Instead of brads, I added brown dew drops. The top panel is popped up.

This is absolutely gorgeous, Bridget!!! Don't you just want to scream when something messes up when you are practically through!! GRRRR!!! I think most of us have had those moments. But you recovered beautifully...and as I sometimes call those "flubs"..."Happy Accidents" something new and beautiful comes out of them. That's the case here. The gold embossed bg is stunning and makes your card a real show piece! LOVE it! Thanks so much for making my day special by creating this card! Sallie
