Gloomy day here, hard to get the full effect of all the metallic gold (ep and the marbled dp). I used several Distress inks that were fairly close (purple, pink and green), made my background, then heat embossed the sentiment and stars. There have been a couple of star challenges lately, although this might not be as CAS as some would like. But it is clean, no frou frou, not a lot of layers and it was very simple. This is also for the FS BarbieP from a week ago. I love Barbie's work and while this card isn't an exact case, I think she likes to do 'statement' stamping, something that has some 'wow' but not a lot of embellishment. I'm sorry it took me a while to honor your work, Barbie. I'll upload this card as an example of that: IC432 Butterfly by BarbieP at Splitcoaststampers

Your gold embossing looks fabulous with the pretty ink colors you used.
