Can You Handle the Pressure - Twist - Card of Thanks

Hello Friends, thanks for stopping by today!

We have a new challenge starting today over on our new Can You Handle The Pressure Challenge Blog and the TWIST theme is ...

Card of Thanks

Remember, the twist is optional but you MUST use an embossing folder on your projects to qualify for the prize.  Heat embossing is also permitted but only in conjunction with an embossing folder.

 Here's what I've created to inspire you today.  


I have used the beautiful Spellbinders 3D 'Floral Archway'
5x8 embossing folder for the focus of today's card.  
 
My card stock is old Stampin' Up 'Melon Mambo' as is the ink used for the sentiment & flower centers.    The sentiment is also from Stampin' Up ... called  'Elegant Greetings' (circa 1999).
 
My card is A6 in size so I had to be sure to properly center my white card stock.
 
Challenges to share in:

Allsorts Challenge #837 - Focal Sentiment or ATG (ends 12/5)
The Card Concept #221 - Give Thanks  (inspiration is theme of  'giving thanks') ends 12/8

 
Shopping our Stash #561 - A Quick Thank You (ends 12/1)
Sparkles Monthly Challenge #194 - Thank You Card (ends 12/15)

I do hope you'll come check out our challenge blog and play along.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
I appreciate it more than you'll ever know!!

As always . . .

    This is gorgeous. Love the embossing folder and how you just colored the flower centers and stamped the pretty sentiment in the middle.
