The Paper Players #522 and ATCAS #188

It's always nice to have a few new stamps to start the new year and even better when a challenge like The Paper Players wants you to use them on your card.

I loved the lantern stamp and die from Papertrey Ink so it had to come live with me.  It took a while to get it because the dies were out of stock for what seemed like forever.  Also new is my etched platinum embossing powder which gives a great metallic look.  Instead of the flowers that come with the set, I opted to use a Pinkfresh Studio bow on the top and put it all on an embossed panel.

With all the embossing I can send my card to Addicted to CAS

Warmest wishes to you all.  Thanks for dropping by.

LOve that darling bow - much better than flowers would be, Bobby, IMHO. I'd love to get a closer look at that embossing ... it sure does look like metal from where I'm sitting!
Gorgeous card!
