WT88, Luminous Creations -- Using Lumiere. I embossed the flowers with very sparkly gold tinsel EP on Basic Black CS, then painted them with a Pearl Ex/Lumiere mixture--blue on the flowers and green on the leaves. It's hard to photograph something like this. There's alot more sparkle in the gold and less glare in the flowers...oh, well. This is the first time I've tried this so it was a fun experience.

I saw Leslie's card IRL..........believe me......way, way more beautiful IRL. The flowers really shimmer and are beautifully shaded. Also the gold tinsel EP really sparkles and is what I noticed first. A card you just want to really look at every detail and touch. I always feel so privileged to be able to see Leslie's cards IRL. Thanks Leslie for always sharing. Your friend and huge fan, Nancy

Really beautiful! You've inspired me to take my Lumiere out and try them. Like some many others here, I bought them and have no idea what to do with them. :mrgreen:

Just gorgeous!!! I'm sure this is a show stopper in person... and such a nice layout. You may have just convinced me that I SHOULD hang on to this set... at least long enough to try this card!

This would make for a lovely 6x6 or 12x12 scrapbook page - which is what I think I'll try once I get my craft room back in shape! Thanks for the inspiration - it's beautiful!

I have to officially share here that I am the lucky, lucky gal to receive this card. OMG! It's even more gorgeous in person. The artistry and detail that went into those flowers is phenomenal! And the sparkle from that gold tinsel EP is something the photo just can't do justice. Thank you so much, Leslie, for picking me to have this. I'm not going to want to put it away. Linda
