Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
This week Darnell's I.D.E.A.S is Embossing.
She's come up with this fun way to start off the week with a starting point
for a card.
I've embossed a piece of Black Mixed Media paper and added a bit of
watercolor with Metallic Watercolor Paint to the raised parts.
I thought it made a very dramatic background and added some die cut leaves
over top. I love how the die embosses the leaves as it cuts.

A stunning card. The white on black background is soft but adds a lot to the card. Those are nice leaf dies.
I just adore die-cut leaves, Bonnie! What a beautiful card - who knew they made black mixed-media paper! There you go again - mind blown!

Stunning card. x
The soft white on the embossed background is amazing, Bonnie.
Absolutely GORGEOUS!!!☺️
You're right - that is a dramatic background! Love it with the metallic paint on it. The leaves look perfect against it.
Very dramatic background in black with the metallic paint over the raised areas. I love it. The leaves are perfect with the embossed images and I love the sentiment. Great card.
You're right about dramatic Bonnie and there's also such a lot of depth to the background! The cluster of leaves looks wonderful against it. Vicky x
WOW...dramatic AND beautiful Bonnie! That black background is gorgeous and I love the way the leaves POP off of it! Lovely, lovely card my friend! Hugs. :0)
The metallic paints and embossing used over the black background look so pretty Bonnie, and the added die cut leaves in green and white with the black twine across the top of the card look great..a beautiful anniversary card. x
I don't know what I like better the pretty leaves in the foreground or the pretty leaves in the background! Oh, who am I kidding, I like them all! Fabulous card, Bonnie!
Simply Beautiful background and foreground leaves on your gorgeous HAPPY ANNIVERSARY CARD DEAR FRIEND:-) Love and Hugs...Nancy
Wow! Bonnie, this is spectacular with the bold black background, shimmery colors and those beautifully die cut & embossed leaves! This is so beautiful, and your pieces blend together like magic.
I agree, Bon, this is a really stunning dramatic background! And you know how I love trees and leaves, so the focal leaves are the perfect choice! Thank you for playing with me!📌 Hugs, Dolly

Lovely card, the dark background really makes an impact! Love it, thanks so much for sharing with us at Can You Handle the Pressure.
Such a beautiful embossing folder and deeply etched leaves! One is just as graceful and amazing as the other, but together they're spectacular!
Striking and dramatic and gorgeous! Love the metallic paints on the raised areas. I guess we were on the same color combo dramatic wavelength. 😉

I love the effect of rubbing the embossed twigs with white ink. They brighten up the background wonderfully for these lovely cut-out twigs.
