Here's all the things that are hard to make out in the picture: The Blush Blossom piece is scored along the edges with the bumpy side up, forming a dry embossed frame for the center panel; the words are embossed with gold glitter EP (very sparkly pretty); the ribbon slide is shiny gold beads with a rhinestone center--it's actually just a piece I cut from a length of trim I got at Wal-Mart. I spent way too much time trying to get a good scan or picture of this, darnit!

Wow, Leslie, this is true holiday elegance! That dry embossed "frame" is a fantastic idea! I can only imagine how that gold glitter embossing sparkles, and the gold edging is the perfect finishing touch. Everything about this is so tasteful and refined. And kudo's for using Blush Blossom - good girl! TFS. Linda

This is just gorgeous! If I hadn't used the Peace, Joy, Love last year for my cards, I'd be casing this whole thing for this year! Thanks for such a beautiful card!
