Who knew you could be inspired by napkins? I chose this napkin for my inspiration today. I liked the damask look so I stamped a Hero Arts lace bg stamp with versamark and clear embossed. The medallion is stamped with silver and embossed with a marcasite ep..it's very sparkly in real like. I had a heck of a time trying to photograph this..the trim keep reflecting. Oh well..I really like how this turned out.

You really nailed your inspiration piece, Polly. This is beautiful - I love the embossed trim with the shiny contrast. This must be a knockout IRL!

I really like how this turned out, too, Pol. Nice to be back on the forum after an enforced vacation from crafting and nice to be commenting on your fab cards!

I LOVE how it turned out, Polly. The marcasite ep must look fab IRL! Wonderfully inspired with the lace!
