Slimline Celebrate: Free gift from March Paper Pumpkin

It's a rainy Monday here in the PNW, perfect for staying in and stamping. Today's card is inspired by CAS Colours and Sketches #462, a slimline sketch challenge. I used the free stamp set that came free in the March Paper Pumpkin kit and again played with the gold leafing. I have a love hate relationship with the leafing. I always think it should turn out better than it does.

Ink: Flirty Flamingo and Pool Party

VersaMark, Heat and Stick Powder and Gold Leafing

Gilded Masking

Hello everyone! It was a gorgeous day here in the PNW. We had lots of sun and a high temperature of 62. 

I woke up a few mornings ago wondering how gold leafing would work using the decorative masks. My first thought was to use Polished Pink but when I saw the Just Add Ink #595 inspiration photo, I decided tp go with Granny Apple Green.   

Cardstock: Basic White and Mossy Meadow
