Gold Flower Card

How much gold is too much gold??

Well, I went all out with this card and created the large 3D flower out of gold and gold glitter cardstock…I had to really hold myself back and not splatter gold paint on the background panel…that would’ve been wayyy too much..!!

Once I had die cut and assembled the Altenew Peony Dream 3D flower, I set it aside…I used a moss green cardstock for my front panel on which I have sponged in the edges with mowed lawn and forest moss Distress Inks…I also used the Altenew Dotted Swirls debossing cover die for a subtle pattern in the background…

I adhered the flower to the front panel and then gold heat embossed a sentiment from the Altenew Sentiment Strips stamp set on a thin black cardstock strip and added it to the card using some black adhesive foam strips..and finally to embellish my card I have used some black Nuvo Drops..

I hope you didn’t have to shut your eyes as soon as you looked at my card today….ha ha…thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today…have a happy and crafty day ahead..
