Hi! I had a bit of extra time today so decided to make a card for a few challenges. Color Hues is looking for Gold and Silver, Time Out Challenges has a quote (where I think I've covered the "simplicity" and "sophistication" aspects) and Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies challenge.
For this card I created a background panel using the Deco Triangles Hot Foil Plate and some vintage matte gold foil. Once it was foiled, I die-cut it with a stitched rectangle die and matted it to a black panel.
For the sentiment, I die-cut the Hello word twice from black and once from silver foil cardstock and layered them together. I used the negative die-cut to align it on the hot foiled panel.
To finish the card, I white-embossed a sub-sentiment and added it under the Hello.
Thanks so much for visiting!

Stamps: Lots of Hugs (MFT)
Ink: Versamark
Cardstock: White, Black, Silver Foil
Dies: Big Hello, Stitched Rectangle Stax (MFT), Deco Triange Hot Foil (The Greetery)
