This is my card for TLC589 Faux Cloisonne. I found several gorgeous pages in a National Geographic magazine. I love the way the blue looked like real glass.
I stamped the script background first and then the flower stems. Then I stamped the flowers with Versamark, gold embossed them, cut them out and popped them up on the card. I like how they turned out.

Oh my gosh, talk about a creative roll! Without reading I studied this for a long time, trying to figure out what is behind the flower! Amazing card, Carol! That National Geographic paper- too bad they don't sell that gorgeous color! Can you tell I REALLY love this including the angled background you created!

Beautiful, Carol. Now, you're someone I could be sure would have some saved magazines for recycling!! Those flowers really do look like glass, they make me think of a suncatcher...and I always love a script background.

Gorgeous! I like that you used writing in the background. I would like to find this blue in a magazine and use outline flowers that could showcase more of the blue. I'm on a mission now! TFS.
