To create this card I started with a panel of patterned paper and went over the mask with a Versamark ink pad. I then added clear embossing powder and heat set it. I then went over the entire panel with a green and black distress inks. Finally I used a damp cloth to wipe the ink off of the embossed areas to help the design pop. The sentiment was then stamped and embossed with white embossing powder onto black card stock. I popped this up with some foam adhesive onto a die cut vellum star and some gold thread. A few star sequins and a glitter gold panel pulled it all together.
