Welcome to my blog, my crafty friends! I made this card for the Let It Shine Course by Altenew Academy. In this course, Carissa Wiley shows many ways to add shimmer and sparkle to your cards. I used the techniques from Lesson 2 – Embossing powder class.
For this card, I used the Pen Sketch Mandala Stamp Set. I started by cutting a piece of Cherry Premium cardstock to 4 * 5 1/2 inches using my trimmer. Since I wanted to emboss only half of the image, I masked the other half of the cardstock using Memo Tape. Then I placed the Mandala stamp on my Misti and prepped the cardstock using an embossing bag to remove any static. After that, I inked the stamp using VersaMark ink and stamped it on the cardstock. I then sprinkled gold embossing powder on it and dusted off the excess. Then I gently removed the memo tape and heat set the embossed image with my heat gun.
Next, I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set using VersaMark ink. Then I sprinkled gold embossing powder on it and heat set it.
After that, I went over the edges of the cardstock with Ruby Red Crisp Ink and a blender brush. Next, I cut a strip of red cardstock and embossed it using gold embossing powder. I then stuck this strip behind the card panel. Lastly, I stuck this card panel on an A2 card base using liquid glue.

This is such a classy looking card! It’s beautiful. Love the partial stamping and the way you have fit the sentiment beautifully. The inking on the edges adds to the dramatic effect. Well done.
