I love color challenges and this one was a challenge for me. I am way out of my comfort zone! I don't use gold much or at all but, I was so intrigued by these colors I just had to see what I could come up with. This is my first attempt before the Holiday but, I have some ideas up there. So I might play with these colors some more!
For this card I used a stamp out of Unity's November's Kit of the Month. Same with the sentiment. I stamped the flowers out in gold and heat embossed it. Then I dry embossed it. I stamped the flowers out again in black and colored with grey copic markers just a tiny bit to give a bit of shadow for depth. I only cut out the two flowers. So the the rest of the gold stamped image could peak out behind a bit. I didn't have any gold paper so I made some using the gold ink on white card stock. I used foam tape to pop up both the flowers and sentiment. Tied ribbon on attached to card base.
Thanks for looking!

I love these cards coming out of the black, white, and gold challenge...they are stunning as is this one. Really love your gold embossed shadow behind the almost white flowers. Super pretty card!
