I hope this card counts! This was a difficult challenge for me. I embossed the image with vanilla EP and blended with a Marvy blender pen and Stampin Pastels. I didn't like the way it looked so I sprinkled on Dazzling Diamonds; a little better. Then I used gold embossing powder and created a background paper using a smaller stamp in the set on Real Red paper. I used the SU markers for coloring on the background. Still not liking the image, I got out IBB and embossed around the image and then sponged gold on the edges with ColorBox pigment ink, then I topped it off with a gold bow. Not sure how I feel about this card, it's not a total loss, but certainly not something I'll try again.
