Botanical Blooms Meets Affectionately Yours Gold Foiled Nan Card Stampin' Up! UK

Today, I have another Card that I was commissioned to make by one of my customers.

This one, was for the customers Grandmother, and she wanted NAN included on the card.

That meant it was the perfect moment to try out my new Alpha Set

BRUSHWORK

I adore the script and it allows you to join the letters easily, as it is a photopolymer stamp set.

I combined it with the Layered Ovals Framelits Dies using Gold Foiled Cardstock. I also used the Gold Foil for the mat layer.

The flowers were die cut using the Botanical Builder Framelits Dies, with the new In Colour Cardstock, Gold Ribbon, and the Nan was heat embossed using Gold Embossing Powder.

Before assembling the Topper, I dry Embossed the Whisper White Cardstock layer with the Floral Affection Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF) and run through my Big Shot using the Multipurpose Platform.

The card was finished with some Basic Rhinestones
