supplies: plum and tan cardstock, Hero Arts CG405 Leaf & Floral Background, CG291 Three Dotted Flowers, VersaMark ink and Ranger super fine detail gold embossing powder, CL559 Greatest Gift, dusty concord embosing powder, clear embossing powder, white pearls heated in gold embossing powder, Die-Namics large scallop die, gold button
I used 2 of my favorite non-holiday stamps for this card, then added a Christmas sentiment. It seemed too small for the space, so I wanted gold pearls below it. I dipped white ones into a VersaMark pad, then into the gold embossing powder and heated......worked pretty well!
Congratulations to the new ladies on the Design Team at CR84FN - you join an elite group! Looking forward to seeing your work!

Wow Lin you really rocked those colours. What an amazing card.
Fit for the King, indeed! So gloriously elegant! I love the trick with the pearls, too....most inventive. Wow!
Oh so elegant and classy! Love it!
I was inspired by a card you made last year. I have it pinned on my Pinterest Board for reference. Today I featured my version on my blog with a link back to you. All your cards are an inspiration.

Lin, I love the plum with the gold, it's such a striking combination. I have to try this one myself with the 3 dotted flowers. thanks for sharing.
This is beautiful the colours and design are gorgeous. Caroline xxx
Such an elegant card Lin!
That is such an elegant card and color combination. This is the best time of year for pulling out the ol' heat embossing stuff. I do wish Hero Arts would make a Silhouette cut file for that flower, though. It's such a pretty flower but I do so hate fussy cutting.
PS - Love the embossed pearls, too - great idea.
This is so royally PRETTY, Lin! LOVE the gold embossing against the purple! LOVE the gold pearls, too! THX for playing with us at
