Hand-Penned and Rose Metallic Specialty Paper by Stampin UP®



If you like sparkle then this is the card for you!  I used the Hand-Penned Suite by Stampin Up® for this card!  The suite includes, Hand-Penned Bundle (Stamp set and dies), Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper and Genial Gems.  


I added in the Forever Blossoms Stamp set,  the new Gold Rose Metallic Specialty Paper for the Die overlay!  It's much shinnery in person then it is in this picture.  It's quite stunning! To finish off the sparkle I colored in the flowers with Wink of Stella!

I have created several cards with this suite and will be posting them in the next few weeks and months.  If you want to be updated when I add a card just add your email to the right under the "Follow Me" section.
