The card I am sharing with you today is the thank you card I have created to send to all of my customers who place an order this month. I love sending thank you cards and this one is darling!

I started this card with the flower, and added everything else later.  The flower is heat embossed with Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder, over Magenta Madness ink.  

Using the Stamparatus makes this technique a breeze!  Just place your cardstock on the stamping surface of the Stamparatus and secure it with the magnets.  Then, place the stamp where you want it on the cardstock and press the clear cover on the stamp to pick it up.  Ink the stamp with Versamark and stamp, then gently clean off the stamp with a slightly damp Simple Shammy (without removing it from the Stamparatus).  Now, reink the stamp with a color.  Now you are ready to add your Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder and heat it up with the Stampin' Up! Heat Tool. 

To create the other layers, I used the Tasteful Labels Dies, the Tasteful Textile 3D folder, and In Good Taste Designer Series Paper. A few Pearl Basic Jewels gave this card the perfect finishing touch. 

Aren't these layers gorgeous!?  I tried to get the full effect of the embossing in this picture.  However, I am no great photographer.  I have been using the same container of Clear Emboss Powder for YEARS...over time it has gotten a bit of Stampin' Glitter mixed in with it, which adds a fun sparkle to all my embossing.  

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
