This card is almost over the top metallic but I really wanted to see how well all of the gold elements would work together. What fun!
Along with the Happy Watercolor stamp set (wood 133188 $36.95, clear 133191 $26.95), this card also features gold inspired products from the new Occasions 2014 catalogue.
My theme for this card was obviously gold and white and I mixed gold Encore ink (the shadow image) with gold embossed images.
After stamping the shadow background image, I let it dry for a few minutes and then powdered it with the embossing buddy to be sure it was completely dry before stamping the flower on top and heat embossing the gold embossing powder.
