For SC213. I've wanted to try embossing this image on vellum for several weeks, but I've just never found the time. I thought the small rectangle on the sketch was perfect for this image! I embossed it in gold on the vellum and embossed the music background stamp in gold on the burgundy cs base. I added some ivory cardstock, pp from October afternoon, a few gold brads, some ribbon, and a flourish. I heated the ends of the ribbon to get them to crinkle, but I think it looks a little too much like rotini pasta than something elegant! Everything came together very quickly, no coloring!
