This week's Teaparty is for Mac's friend Vera, who is the amazing age of 103, and could use some special card love! Lisa (Shoe Girl) is our hostess and is encouraging us to add some gold to our cards for Vera.
Well, I thought--what's better than a little gold? A whole lotta gold! So I embossed the gold CS with these lovely dandelions for the main panel of my card, and layered it on black for contrast.
Stamped the Bible verse in Versamark and heat embossed with the Detail Gold EP. Die-cut with an oval die, and then die-cut a black layer. Popped it up on the front and added some bitty gold stickers.
I hope Vera really likes gold! TFL!

Liz, this is STUNNING! Your embossing on the cs looks superb. I have shied from that because of the thickness my metallic cs but now I HAVE to give this a try. And I love that you used a dandelion here. Reminds me of all those times I made my wishes with one. Sweet memories. I agree wholeheartedly more gold was the right answer. Vera will adore this for sure. I know I do. Fantastic card.
