I tried the one layer tole on one petal of the flower blossom, and tried the emboss with die on the frame, and used a stencil on the bg after masking the image. Shimmery glossy accents for sparkle. Fun challenge and I hope it brings a smile. much prettier IRL

I think it's pretty in the gallery! I like the bg stenciling and the embossed framing. I think you get some extra cookies for trying two of the suggested techniques ;) They'll love this!

Dry embossed frames are one of my favourite techniques, going back years. I think they always look super, and I like the stencilling. The added dimension to the flower from the one-layer tole looks fantastic.

Looks great here. Your flower is beautiful and the lifted petal is the perfect Love the look of your dry embossed frame. Really lovely and cheerful card. I think Janet will love this too.

What a lovely creation Mary, as a card maker Janet is sure to love all the techniques and details. Like Vicky I was too intimidated to try the one layer tole and I have never tried a dry embossed border. Thank you for all the inspiration and for bringing this gem to the teaparty.
