Gold Embossed Altenew Flowers





I've seen so many beautiful cards with gold heat embossing on dark cardstock, I decided to give it a try. Here I took the Altenew Pen Sketched Flowers set and arranged the stamps around the edge of the cardstock. I used VersaMark watermark ink and then used gold embossing powder. I like to do one stamp at a time so I don't make a mess with the gold powder, accidently bumping it.

I colored the leaves and flowers in with Faber-Castell Polychromos. I used several shades of blue and 2 shades of green. I then highlighted a few areas with the white pencil on the flowers, I used a light yellow on the leaves for accent.

I then matted the cardstock on gold cardstock and attached the entire thing to a regular white card, finished size is 5x6.5".

I diecut the Happy Birthday 2x,once in the blue cardstock, once in the gold and glued them together using Gina K Connect Glue, which has a nice fine tip.
