Gold heat embossing & watercolor congratulations card

Hi friends, it’s Gaylynn.  Today, I am showing a gold heat embossing & watercolor together for a congratulations card.  It has a stained glass look to it.

I used three stamp kits for this including the large floral background stamp.

Sentiment:
Congratulations.
Hooray for you!

Helpful tips:

In summary, to make this card using gold heat embossing & watercolor, begin by preparing an A2-sized card base in white.  Then, onto the smooth side of watercolor cardstock, stamp the background in watermark ink.  Also, stamp the sentiments in dark purple ink.    Next, add gold embossing powder and heat set for shiny gold embossing.  Also, trim or die-cut the background card layer.  For watercolor, mix the desired colors and then color in the embossed stamping.  Allow the colors to blend together where they meet.  Once dried, assemble the card layers, sentiments and accents onto the card base, to finish.  Optional, add colored butterflies or accents.

And this shows the detail a little closer.
