New Holly Stamp Again

My heart goes out to everyone involved in the horrific train derailment in Washington state.  Hits close to home as I've driven that stretch of I5 many times & my first job after college was at one of the hospitals where the injured were taken.  
I love my new Impression Obsession holly stamp, G2000, so had to make another card.  This time I was inspired to try the color combo recommended by my blogging friend, Tracy: Rose Gold and Gray. 
I recently got SSS Rose Gold embossing powder & love the look.  In person, the card is wonderfully elegant.  The IO sentiment, B3585, was double embossed with the same powder.
Luckily I still have my old fashioned stamp positioner to use with wood mounted stamps.  I'm entering the Impression Obsession Challenge, CAS on Friday, SSS Christmas Card Day & W2CB.  Thanks so much for taking time to stop by.

    The rose gold is beautiful and so is this card. I watched CNN and can't believe such a horrible accident occurred. What a miracle no one on the ground was hurt. Prayers go out to those involved.

    This stamp is so pretty and it looks wonderful in Rose Gold! I thought I ordered the same embossing powder from SSS recently but when it arrived I realized I put a different color in my basket by mistake! So it will be in my next order...

    Makes the accident even closer to home, when I now know someone who lives near, such a tragedy.
    Your card is VERY elegant, I love the colour combination and your stamps.
