Hello

I've been watching some of Jennifer McQuire's videos lately and working with perfect Pearls and this was the first of many cards I made last week in this same style as I really liked it.   I believe Jennifer calls this her Faux Textured Metal Technique.    I used copper Perfect Pearls on the center spot and had some SU! copper card stock for the back panel.
I used an older, but one of my favorite "go to", Hello stamps by Hero Arts and punched it out with SU! circle and scallop punches.  On this particular card I went with the SU! Fancy Fan embossing folder.  I made several of these cards with all different embossing folders and sentiments on them so I could have some back up cards in my stash for those times when I just need a quick card.  Somehow I let my stash get down to almost nothing so it was time to restock.  Thanks for taking a peek here today and I wish you all a great day.

  6. What a classic beauty of a card! I like the look of one rounded corner and the embossing looks beautiful! I love the clean lines and simple design - which are the perfect elements for quick (and great) cards! Nice job!

  7. Donna, I have 47 embossing folders in my stash and just discovered that I need this one, too! :-D Gorgeous card and I do love that folder you chose. So elegant in copper and white. Love the CAS design -- although it doesn't really look CAS -- it looks fancy and time consuming.
