This is a great gold foil CAS card for celebrating a wedding, bridal shower, birthday or other celebration occasions.  It shimmers beautifully.

Helpful tips:

These are helpful tips for making this gold foil CAS card.  To begin, prepare the flower stamping for foiling.  I like to heat emboss the stamping prior to foiling but use the foiling method that you like best.  Then, sandwich the stamping and the foil pretty side up between parchment paper and then run through a pre-heated laminator.  Next, trim or die-cut a small background panel for the flower.  I dry embossed that panel, optional.  Then, stamp and die-cut the sentiment and hearts.  Next, add color to the top outline flower, using distress ink and ink blending brushed.  Also, fussy cut (cut out) the flower pieces.  Finally, layer it all onto the card front along with embellishment, to finish.

Here is another look.
