Das doppelte Lottchen #136

It's sunday, that means it's Lottie and Lisa time!

That means Anni and I usually pick a stamp or stamp set or die that we both have (we nearly have the same taste!) and create a card with this product and another task.

Today Anni made a wish, and it is:

Hero Arts - Small Solid Flower

&

Metal

When I first read about this challenge I was like - oh... metal?! I thought about charms - but I don't like them on cards. Metal foil - uhm... no.

So I went for some stamples! Easy, subtile, but a nice detail. 

• I embossed the small solid flowers and more Hero Arts flowers with silver Pearl embossing powder onto vellum and used my blending tools to add color on top.
• The front panel is slightly smaller than my long cardbase and got rounded corners. I also drew some false stitching to add some extra pulling the card together.
• I cut the flowers out with some extra space and stapled them onto my card panel. 
• See the sentiment? It says "Happy Birthday" or "Congratulations" and is from a new Create A Smile Set that will be released on friday. Woot woot! :) I stamped it with Versafine Black Onyx Ink.
• Popping that up onto the card adds some simple dimension.

I love how this card turned out. The silver peal embossing powder also has a metallic shine, so it goes super well with the staples and the colors just POP! That extra long card allows the colors to shine and have some space.
