Gold Embossed Bouquet

I am doing the mental moon walk here -- think this may be a CAS card {finally}! Why are CAS cards so hard for me? This time I made up my mind to just stop, use lots of white space, stop, walk away, deep breathe, and leave it alone LOL.

I stamped Spring Blossoms from Flourishes (won a stamp set from them THANK YOU FLOURISHES) in VersaMark, sprinkled detail gold embossing powder, hit it with the heat tool, then colored in with Copics and Spectrum Noir.

Happy accident: cut the yellow layer incorrectly, so just used two squares of it, pop dots behind it, scored the main card and added three pearls. PAU (pronounced POW in Hawai'ian = done, finished!)

    Rosy....this is super fantastic and so beautifully done with the gold and your coloring. You really made it clean and simple but filled with elegance. I just love it.

    Gorgeous Rosy! I love reading how another cardmaker 'saves' a mistake. This was a great idea, looked fabulous, and had you not explained, just would have thought it was a designed look. This is a beautiful stamp image, and you really colored it up so wonderfully well. PAU. I like adding to my vocabulary too! TFS & Hugs

    What an absolutely beautiful, elegant card Rosy. The gold embossing powder really sets off the image and turns the card from a lovely card to an elegant beautiful card. I love it. I will need to get some colouring tips from you Rosy, you have to give me some tutorials, please ...................................... Hugs, Jen :-) xxxx

    Beautiful card Rosy. I just happened on the Copic challenge today and saw your name, so I clicked and saw your talented creation. I love how you saved the yellow and only added a touch on the corners. The coloring and the gold are excellent, I really enjoyed this.

    The gold detail is beautiful - great job. Also, thanks for leaving a comment on my blog earlier - I will definitely try using perfect pearls with UTEE, it's a great idea.
