I stamped and embossed the branches in gold, using my MISTI. Hubby loves the combo of blue and green, so I blended Altenew Persian Blue and Lagoon through the matching stencils. Of course I had to add small gold splatters--love the look! I don't think I've ever used Memory Box Love You Gallery Script die. I cut the background from a scrap I gold embossed with the same powder I used for the branches. The white outline was double stacked. Have to say, this turned out exactly like I wanted. Can't say that too often. I'm entering JUGS, Inkspirational and WAW. 
Cards are piling up here, so I sent one of my favorite cards previously posted to Ellie for the August CCC. 
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.
This is gorgeous! I love the beautiful stenciling and blending of the blue and green leaves. The gold touches look amazing. Thanks for playing along with us at JUGS!
