Altenew - Let it Shine

 

                                                

 Altenew Let it Shine class was right up my alley....I could use bling and glitter for days.  I really enjoyed the different techniques done in the class sections.  I think my favourite ended up being the use of minimal metallic paper on a project.  I am not hesitant to use up my foil cards stock (I probably have a lifetime supply in my craft room and can never resist buying more).  I chose to do some super narrow frames from my altenew die that I just received with some tropical flowers.  The little bit of black and white stripe really added to the card and made my sentiment strip stand out as well.

I loved the embossing of the thank you sentiment as well.  It's something that I don't do very often and it was a forgotten about technique that I used to use years ago.  I am glad I was reminded about it as I really like the look of the faux metal on the this card.
