My second of four cards for the April Christmas card challenge to fussy cut Christmas florals. Sorry, no fussy cutting on this one.
I really love this stamp and die set by Tim Holtz/Sizzix and thought it would be beautiful heat embossing the image. I just love how it came out!
After embossing the image I used SSS In Stitches rectangle dies to cut the image and frame. The frame is adhered directly to the card base with Sookwang tape; the focal image is layered on a matching piece of craft foam and also adhered with Sookwang tape.
As always, thanks for looking!

Oh Jodie, this is gorgeous. Love the white on white palette and, when added to that beautiful gold embossing, it just jumped out as the winner for the day.

This is so pretty, Jody. I have stitched rectangle died, but mine come out uneven so I have not used them yet. The cream panels with the gorgeous embossed flower is so elegent.

Every time I see one of your cards I have an incredible desire to shop! Love that stamp and especially love it in gold! I too, love the look of gold on vanilla, a combination I will use after seeing this! It's just beautiful, Jody!
