Today I’m sharing a card using two of the fabulous add-ons!
I am a HUGE fan of brunch so when I saw the Gal Pal Brunch set I was smitten! 😉 To start I stamped the champagne flutes and citrus slices with versamark and heat-embossed them with silver embossing powder. I colored them with copics and then die-cut them with the coordinating dies. I stamped the sentiment onto black cardstock and heat-embossed it with white embossing powder. I trimmed it down to a label and then worked on the background!
It’s a little tricky to see in photo but I stamped the Bursting With Love Bold Prints stamp onto a piece of white cardstock with versamark and heat-embossed it with sparkle embossing powder. Then I trimmed it down to 4″ by 5.25″ and adhered it to a white card base. Next I layered the glasses, citrus and sentiment and adhered them with a mix of regular adhesive and foam mounting tape. Finally I added a little clear lacquer to the glasses and sprinkled them with Snowfall glitter! This is such a fun set and perfect for your best girlfriends! 🙂

Love the way you did the yellow colors in this card and the glasses can be used for many other occasions.

Jessica, your gal pal card celebrating brunch is so fantastic! I love the silver with the yellow! I’m mimosa over the moon about it! Sorry, poor pun but a great card. I really like your sandwich board card too! I am really digging that die and very excited to start using it! I like how you made the snowy effect on the board and the glitter in the champagne glasses! Two unique projects! You are making me second guess my decision to not get the gal pal brunch stamp set… darn it! I will just have to live vicariously thru you! Thanks for two GREAT cards!
