For this card, I was inspired by the dragon. I used a beer label from my husband's favorite brew, which has a beautiful shimmer. I layered it onto gold mat cardstock, then die cut the dragon from the same gold mat.
While the dragon was still in the die, I applied VersaMark through the openings and added black heat embossing to create detailed accents.
Both the dragon and the sentiment are popped up on dimensionals to add depth and dimension.

A fantastic and original design for a Father's day card! Clever recycling, the dragon looks magnificent.

What a lovely theme Lisa, from the backing DP and colours right through to the intricate Dragon the Oriental vibes come through loud and clear.
