Pretty in Pink (and Gold!) Rose Card
Pretty in Pink and Gold Rose Card
From the Designer: "This elegant pretty in pink, gold and black rose card is a perfect any occasion card for someone special on you card list. The textures, color and finish will make this a treasured card for the recipient. The focal point of the card is the beautiful rose that was heat embossed in gold and colored using Sakura Souffle and Gelly Roll pens. The dry embossed ivory background has half pearl embellishments created using a gold Sakura Pen-Touch Calligrapher marker. The Pen-Touch Calligrapher marker also was applied along die cut edges to create a finished, beautiful edge."

So pretty! Love that square frame SB die you used. Very elegant card. I like to use gems a lot, but have many flowers, sequins more to help me embellish.

Using my Cricut to cut my own establishments and designs. I love layering, stamping, embossing and adding some kind of bling.

I like heat embossing and layering to decorate cards. I also like to make cards with different folds.
