HSI #24 Use Gold

Hello everyone and Welcome back.


This weeks challenge on Heart Song Inspirations is to use gold on your cards. At first I thought how am I going to do this card. I wracked my brain trying to come up with a card and then it hit me "I have Gold Cardstock!" I am using Heart Song Designs new image Nativity on my card this week. For this image I wanted to try something new that I have never done before. I took my brand new Versa marker and I embossed the star and the crowns of the image with Gold embossing powder. I then colored the rest of the image with my Copic Markers. Once my image was complete I mounted it onto my gold cardstock. I did the same thing with my sentiment which I used SU - Keep Christmas. I chose to use black cardstock for the base of my card in hopes to really accent the gold. Once my image and sentiment were mounted I finished off the front of the card with gold ribbon.


Since you all know how much I have been enjoying finishing the inside of my cards I added white cardstock to the inside (we all know that you can't write on black cardstock and have people see it) and then I finished it off with a simple sentiment from SU greetings.

I hope you enjoyed my card for this weeks challenge. Make sure to stop by Heart Song Inspirations to join the fun. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I hope to see you again soon. Have a blessed day.


Thanks
Debbie

Gorgeous, Debbie! Your heat embossing really worked. Love the coloring and the black CS is perfect for showing off the gold. Great ribbon, too.
