Well this is my second attempt to use the technique challenge (TLC521), and I am happy with the results of this one. I gold embossed my background stamp, blended inks over the embossing, and sprayed with shimmer spritz (love that shine). Die cut the numbers from this panel, making sure to keep the "inner pieces". Embossed my black strip that goes across the card and assembled the sentiment panel. (The number dies have 2 sizes - one slightly larger than the other, so I die cut both for the 40.) The entire panel is popped up with dimensionals which gives it such a cool 3D look. After adhering to my card front and added the "inner" pieces in also with dimensional tape. Linking also to CAS312 (use a number), and
