On to my card, I made a 5X7, cut the next layer (white) .25 smaller all the way around, then embossed it using Cuttlebug's Kassie's Brocade. I then took a piece of black (1/2 inch smaller) and stamped HCPC3302 Lilacs/Posy Bouquet in silver and heat embossed it. I used Prismacolor Water color pencils, and colored the flowers in. I then put it on my Scor-pal and scored around the sides .25 and 1/2 all the way around. I used HCPC3301 Hydrangea/Posy Branch for the sentiment and attached it with 3D dots. I love the way it turned out and hope you do too. That's it for now, have a Blessed day and we'll catch up later!

I love this technique! You've done a splendid job! I've only done it once, and didn't like the way it turned out, so you've inspired me to try again. Thanks, Olga!

I like the silver embossing...and also the watercolor pencils. It reminds me of peeloff stickers. I will have to give this a try.
My first look at this and I thought it was stained glass. Absolutely gorgeous Olga. This has to be one of my favorite. "Hugs"
Hi, Olga! I have't been around as much lately but I have to try to win some HFC products. LOL Your card is lovely. I am going to try the silver embossed on black. I've tried gold on lighter colors, but that looks terrific. I just need more time in the day. Your cards are always beautiful and elegant. Have a wonderful day and be blessed!
