The Time Has Come To Gather Together!

November 26, 2019 Filed Under: Gallery, Project Gallery

Gather Together

This is the week many of us will be “gathering together” to feast, visit with family or just relax and watch a lot of football! This card will be sent to those I won’t see this week, but who I will be thinking about as I list all the things I am grateful about!

The card today is CASED from a beautiful card I got recently in a Demonstrator swap I was in. My Upline, Nancy made the card and it featured the Mercury Glass Designer Acetate you see on this card. I loved the look so much I had to try a version!

I started out with several colors under the Mercury Glass, but I really liked the Cajun Craze. It seemed to work well with the Come to Gather DSP, which I also wanted to use. After that, I really just started layering “stuff” on top of the Mercury Glass piece and the DSP that featured Cajun Craze and Merry Merlot. Because the Acetate is such a rich, elegant look, I embossed all the layering pieces with the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder. Its hard to see in the photo, but the embossing adds a really rich look to the card, especially on the Gray Granite punched Leaves and Springs.

If you are going away this week, safe travels. If you are lucky enough to stay home,  have a peaceful holiday!  But most of all, enjoy stuffing yourself silly!
