The Gallery of this week's Featured Stamper, Susan aka MDO Susan, is filled with beautiful cards, fun cards, elegant cards, whimsical cards...a card for everybody. I especially fell in love with all her creations on black cardstock -- WOW! I used this one for my inspiration this week: Happy Day by MDO Susan at Splitcoaststampers
I kept the black and gold in Susan's card and the same layout with one large image; but, I changed the image to a flower and stamped my sentiment on gold instead of black. I used a different embossed bg and added a bit of embellishment with nailheads.
For my card, I stamped the rose in a light ink using my Misti; colored with COPICS and then restamped with the metallic gold ink. The gold papers on my card are all direct to paper with the same metallic ink.
Congratulations Susan. I loved your coloring, your designs, your humor. I hope you have as much fun viewing the cards made in your honor. And, I hope everyone is having a Happy Day, too. TFL

This is so elegant and dramatic and pretty looking, Debbie. And, lol, I do believe I have already been enabled. I have the rose stamp and die but have yet to use it, so thank you for the inspiration, lol. But now I am enabled of that gorgeous ef. you used, so luxurious looking. The gold panel and embossed one just adds to the rich look of this!!

This is so elegant! Love the dramatic black background and that glorious yellow rose (my favorite!). Also, the font on your greeting is beautiful, especially stamped on gold.

I could have seen this one in a museum! I love how it pops out to say, "Look at me, I was picked just for you." The textures--shiny gold, deeply embossed black, delicate topic shading and rounded gold jewels--are amazing together. Thank you for this imaginative case!

Oh wow! This is fantastic! I love the giant pop of the gold/yellow rose anchored so well by the sentiment panel. What an eye catching beautiful this is!
