I've been wanting to try white embroidery on white, and finally did. Here the Splendid Circles have been used. The bg embossing is done on the full card, it was really the only way to do it and get it centered, so when you open it up, you see the embossing on the insides.
I love the Splendid Circle dies as the holes are a part of the die cutting, making it ready for embroidery. The ribbon is wrapped around the front panel and attached in back of the circles. The blue stone is a paua shell. I like to go to the bead and gem show when it's in town, you can pick up some nice embellishments.
So now that I know what the white embroidery on white looks like, it's more than likely, more will come.

he die might cut the holes, but you have to hit the right hole.....which you do with precision and beauty. A STUNNING card, Jennifer. Love the white-on-white....a the pretty black opal like jewel for the center.
