More Eastern Palace

Yesterday I shared a video from another Stampin' UP! demonstrator (who obviously has much more time than I do, as her video is SO well done and loaded with ideas) about the wonderful Eastern Medallions thinlit dies that are part of the Eastern Palace Suite of products, coming May 1st.  I have already shared two cards that I have created from this suite (see them here and here), and today I've got a beauty for you; take a look:

Now I really wish you could see this in person...it is SO shiny and sparkly!

I had been playing with the dies, and created a black square with the die cut out of the middle.  It was so interesting that I decided to use it as my focal point.

I started by taking the little corner-sprinkle stamp and stamping it with Versamark ink, then heat-embossing it with Gold Embossing Powder.  And while I had the embossing powder out, I also stamped/embossed the sentiment and cut it out with the Stitched Shapes (circles) framelits.

Then I began to layer...

The sentiment was adhered to a circle of Gold Foil, and it is centered on the medallion with Dimensionals.  I also had a very skinny circle of Gold Glimmer paper lying on my desk--it was a perfect addition around the sentiment!

Under the medallion cut out is a piece of Gold Foil.  This is layered on a square of Basic Black, and then it's all popped up (with Dimensionals) on a square black card base.  But something was missing...

The Eastern Gold Vinyl stickers that come in the suite are amazing!  See that border?  I used the stickers and laid them around the edge of my card--a beautiful finishing touch!

As stated, this is a truly elegant, yet glittery, card.  The photos don't show off the beauty of it - :(

The Eastern Palace Suite of products is available tomorrow, May 1st!  Here are the order details:
