Stampin Up is having a Holiday Extravaganza for one day only on November 24th. All most everything in the Annual Catalogue will be 10% off with a few exceptions.

I was able to attend the 2020 OnStage@Home Virtual Event this year. We got to have a sneak peak of a few of the new products coming up in the new June to July catalogue. For this card I used the Art Gallery Stamp and die.

I started with a card base of Smokey Slate cut at 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4.

Using a piece of Blushing Bride card stock cut at 3 x 5 1/2, I dry embossed it using the Brick and Mortar embossing folder.

I attached a 1/2 x 5 1/2 strip of silver foil to the left side of the dry embossed piece leaving a narrow strip of silver showing.

I then cut a piece of Rocco Rose card stock cut at 2 1/2 x 3 3/4 and dry embossed it with the Subtle embossing folder. I attached it using dimensionals.

I stamped the Art Gallery flower in Rocco Rose using the second generation technique and for the leaves I used Pear Pizzazz.

I then die cut the images and popped up the flowers and stems the dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Rocco Rose and die cut and then layered on a piece of 1/2 x 2 1/4 and popped up. To add some bling I used some Basic Rhinestones
