You Make My Heart Sing

Hello everyone! I think I'm pretty obsessed with gold embossing, especially on vellum, for sometime now. Here's another card with gold embossing and watercoloring!

I stamped the Dogwood Flower stamp from STAMPlorations repeatedly and embossed it with Hero Art gold embossing powder. I colored it using watercolor. For the background I used Distress Mini Evergreen Bough. This is a color combination I've been wanting to try for a while. I've seen quite a few contests having this color combo in the past.

The stamping on the vellum is a Treble clef with the sentiment 'You make my heart sing'. It is from Unity Stamp Co. I embossed it with the same Hero Arts gold embossing powder.

I love the background! Flowers always make our heart sing, doesn't it? What is your thought on this?

Embossed Pattern

Hello everyone!! Hope you are having a wonderful day! After a few days, I managed to get some craft done today. I made a quick card that was inspired by the Virginia's View Challenge. The challenge is to create geometric pattern. Here's what I came up with:

I love gold embossing on vellum. When I saw the inspiration picture for the challenge, I decided to use it on this card. I stamped one of the stamps from the Stamplorations' VIGNETTE: Art Deco Border Builders stamp set repeatedly using Versamark ink and heat embossed it with gold powder. The stamp image is actually a square tile like one. I used one of the templates from here to help with the stamping.

The sentiment is from the same set. I heat embossed it with gold powder again, to match with the pattern. I used a mint-y green paper backing for the vellum.

So what are your thoughts on this? Thanks for stopping by. Appreciate all your comments.
