The card was really pretty until I had no gold spray. I thought that if I used a little versamark and gold ep it would work the same, but NO. I will try again, after I get some gold spray!! I must say, I found filling in all the black very tedious, but it sure made the water colors pop!

I've got the same problem no gold spray so I've used ep too, I like how your turned out and the gold outlining is very pretty and matches with your sentiment die cut

I think it looks lovely. And I have to say, initially I thought Debbie had used a very light hand with gold embossing, so I am sure this is still beautiful.
Did you read that I did use a clear sparkle pen on one of my samples ( the Constellation one), so if you had Wink of Stella in even clear, never mind gold, you could try that. I agree on it being a little time-consuming but it ends up with a real wow factor.

This looks super. I love the colors you used on the ef and I bet they really pop against the black. My first attempt to got waaaaay too much versamark/gold ep on the card and really lost a lot of the color. So, as Sabrina observed, I am very light handed now. In fact, I used a Versamark pen today to keep it better contained. Love your "LOVE" die cut and, of course, I love your sentiment. Great card.

Well I did have gold spray, and at first it sprayed very nicely and then it started dropping big blobs so I stopped. No spray or not, it's a pretty card.
