This beautiful set is called Autumn Flourishes, and get this...it's selling for $5.59, AMAZING! As you can see I've stamped it in VersaMark ink and then embossed it in clear embossing powder on Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock. Then to match my gorgeous Pink Paisley paper Butterfly Garden, I sponged the embossed image with soft pink and peach ink. It resists the embossing and leaves you with a beautiful design. I've also overstamped the designer paper with stamps from the set as well, tying it all together. I added the sentiment from the new Mother's Day sentiment set Motherly Love.
Above you can get a much better look at the embossing and how it shines.
As you can tell, the Spellbinders really help give it that vintage feel, I've used Fleur De Lis Rectangles and Fancy Tags Three for this design in my Grand Calibur. Then I added some sewing, pretty lace, a satin bow, and some gorgeous pearls.
Here's another card from the archives that I made with this set, and I made it into a Christmas wreath using vellum and silver embossing...
So...go scope through some of these beautiful sale sets and see their potential! When they're gone they won't ever return :)
Thanks for stopping by today friends! Have a wonderful weekend!
