Well, that graphic is not the best, so we are working with Basic Black, Whisper White and a colour of your choice. I've chosen Gold
I've used a new background set from The Craft's Meow, which I embossed with Gold EP. I must admit, that although I made things harder for myself than I needed to by stamping in a clear ink on white paper (what was I thinking??), it was pretty easy to line up and I actually only stamped it 4 times. The card was originally going to be landscape, but that wasn't really working so I flipped it. Actually, this wasn't at all what my card was going to look like but I had a few 'technical difficulties' with my original idea so decided to cut my losses and move on.
Well, that's it from me, I'm scheduling this post after a day at home with a horrible head cold/flu thing and I need to go and lie down again.
Thanks for visiting - hope you have a wonderful weekend. Oh, don't forget to check out what the rest of the Design Team have created.

So very elegant Jo! The gold embossing on the fine pattern is really stunning, a beautiful card!
This is really striking Jo! Love the shine of the embossing, such a classic and rich effect.
