Oh I loved this challenge Lori. I have been wanting to try the Embossed Enamel Leaf Technique and this was the perfect opportunity for me to try it. And I LOVE it. I made my leaf embellishment using this technique, which of course can be found right here on SCS!! I stamped my flourishes from the Priceless set once in Early Espresso and then again in Encore Metallic Gold ink. I stamped and matted my sentiment and popped it up over my flourishes. I then added my enamel leaf. TFL ladies.

Oh wow, I really like the sentiment and love how you created such a pretty design behind it that just sets it off. So well done.

Made me catch my breath, really. Such inspiration and so much great design work here--balance, movement, uncluttered, one central element. If I were grading it--A+

Your enameled leaf turned out fabulous! This is a must do on my list for sure after seeing yours! Love the rich colors you chose for it too. Your flourish stamping and leaf framed your wonderful sentiment perfectly!
