Less is More - Week 10 challenge - one layer sentiment focus

This week over at Less is More the challenge is to design a card with one layer with a sentiment focus.

I've just bought a set of the Spellbinders Fancy Tags 2 and thought I'd use one of them to emboss a frame on the front of my card which I then coloured through the die using Distress Inks.  The sentiment is from the Stampin Up set called Wonderful Words which I find myself going back to time and again.  I used Versamark to stamp the sentiment and embossed with WOW silver glitter e/p.  I then added some roses and the leaves were punched out using a Nellie Snellen two part punch.

Thanks for dropping by.

    I too love that Wonderful Words set, its so FAB isn't it
    This is very pretty
    Maybe it's slightly over embellished for the genre but gorgeous none the less
    That thank you works really well in the embossed frame
    Thank you Karen

    It`s a beautiful card and I love the embossing. I think it would have looked just as beautiful without the roses.
