For this card, I was inspired by the gorgeous playing card series from Spellbinders. My son used to carry a deck with him everywhere he went, so I knew I had to have this collection.
I began by hot foiling the gold playing card for the main panel. Next, I die cut the individual cards and their decorative pieces, adding touches of gold glitter for extra interest.
To finish the design, I added gold glitter crowns to each of the playing cards and completed the layout with a sentiment banner and one of the cards popped up on dimensionals.
