Embossed with a cutting die

Something I've not done for ages and used to really enjoy is white on white.  There is something timeless and elegant with layers of white it lends itself to Shabby Chic and romantic art.  Making the card I'm sharing today stirred memories of W o W and I think you might see some of it here in the near future.

For now there is this.


The die used to emboss with is from Crafty Individuals.  Wanting a canopy effect with dangly bits it was impressed onto a piece of card and then fussy cut along the bottom.   The outline has been traced around with a Sakura Pen.

The sentiment is an old Hot off the Press acrylic stamp from 2007.   By now I was thinking white on white but my white embossing powders are of the chunky kind and would not show off the gorgeous lettering.  Instead Celebrate was stamped in silver and WOW pearlised silver ep used.
