Bravo Burgundy

Burgundy is a color I was used to using more for Christmas or Fall cards.  I wanted to create a new look with it, so I made summery cards for today's post.

Creative Combination:
Bravo Burgundy
River Rock
Baja Breeze
This card actually involves no stamp sets at all.  I used the square lattice embossing folder to create a tapestry (embedded embossing) effect and then used the 'hi' embosslit for a faux metal look.  The faux metal look is created by using brushed silver CS, cutting and embossing it with the embosslit, and then covering it with VersaMark and heat embossing with clear EP.  Repeat the heat embossing step 3 times.  The 'vine' effect is created using the 'Swirly' sizzlit decorative strip die.   I added pearls to all the flowers for an elegant look.

Sweet Set:
Bravo Burgundy
More Mustard
Crumb Cake
For this 4" square card, I created a little movable piece.  I had to add some Garden Green for a tree effect and to hide the brad.  The boy in the swing is attached with a brad and actually swings back and forth on the front of the card.  The stamp set is 'Recess.'  I added a little rhinestone for a bit of bling.
