For my card, I used black lace beneath the embossed layer to incorporate fabric into the design.
I added torn and curled edges to the embossed layer for texture, then adhered it to a black card base with the lace peeking out from underneath.
Next, I stamped Heartfelt Creations flowers and leaves onto black cardstock using Versamark ink, then heat embossed them in black for a subtle, dimensional effect. After cutting and shaping the layers, I assembled them to create depth and movement.
To finish the card, I added a silver "Best Wishes" tag.
This card is headed to my son and his fiancée, who are getting married soon. They both love gothic style and have asked guests to dress as if attending a funeral—how delightfully dramatic! I adore their sense of fun and feel this card suits them perfectly.
Thank you so much for stopping by to see my card today. I truly appreciate your kind comments. If you leave me a note, I’d love to visit your blog in return.
