I blatantly copied Peggy's card which you can see here. I did change the color and used a piece of glossy that was pulled through distress inks and water. I layered it on Reich copper shine paper and add nail heads. Peggy has a style all of her own and one that I admired for years. She has encouraged so many of us with her thoughtful comments. I've had my eye on this card of hers for some time and finally got the die with her help in finding it. Thanks Peggy, for everything.

Beautiful CASE, Nancy, love how you have added distress ink to the glossy card, looks fantastic, and the copper colour underneath - just gorgeous!! A lovely tribute to Peggy!

Well I think you have taken this die to the next level! I LOVE the idea of using the glossy paper with the subtle coloration's......mounting it over the copper shine paper is brilliant...I can only image what it looks like IRL! I also love the random placement of the nail heads, they add a lot to the design... This card definitely has your wonderful signature on it. (ALSO, a great photograph...I see that the new camera does a fabulous job!)

Love that die; I've come so close to ordering it on more than one occasion! Very cool way to color glossy - I would have thought the water would just bead up, but you got beautiful results! Also love that you used copper, I think it should be standard holiday color. The nail heads really do add to the card - just that perfect little extra touch. Beautiful!
