Let Your Heart Be Still

After opening the Curious Metallic pack of paper, I instantly knew I could use this lovely shiny metallic paper for this card.

I kinda made this card up as I went. I wanted some different textures and layers. My Sizzix Big Shot was the perfect tool to help with bringing texture in.

 I was curious to know how this paper embosses.

I ran it through my machine once and it did perfect! This cardstock is a nice heavy duty paper, perfect for embossing.

After cutting out different pieces, I just added them together until I found a card base I was happy with.

I decided I needed some flowers for this card. I am using the Silhouette Cameo 3 here. The blade is at a 6, cut level 30, and double cut to make sure the thick cardstock was cut accurately. I was impressed with the strength of this paper.

After cutting out the flowers, I decided to ink the edges with some simple gold chalk ink I had lying around.

 Threw it all together, added a ribbon and I was pleasantly pleased with the outcome!
