Hey everyone!!  While I was in Nashville TN at Leadership, I saw this awesome card on the boards (they have all kinds of cards, scrapbook pages and 3D things displayed), I just had to try it!!  I really haven't done cards where it is all one color, so thought it was time to try!!
This card is great to show how you can use ONE color of ink, ONE color of paper, ribbon and some Dazzling Diamonds and still come up with a STUNNING card!!
I had my downline meeting last night, and we did this card.  They LOVED it!!  In person the Dazzling Diamonds really sparkles and it just makes this card an eye catcher!!  I wish my picture could show how sparkly it is!!
I stamped the image using Early Espresso ink and then went over the flowers with my Embossing Buddy and then some 2-way glue.  Sprinkled on some DD and WOW!!!  
I LOVE going to Stampin' Up! events!  They really have a ton of things displayed to give you inspiration and ideas!!  I am going to try this technique again, and just use one color.  I thought for sure that the layers would disappear and you wouldn't see them.  But with some dimensionals it really pops!!
So, are you ready to see the card?!!




Make this card and you will be surprised how pretty it is in person!!!

Can I just tell you that I LOVE the Framed Tulips Embossing Folder?  If you don't have it, you HAVE to get it!!  It makes any card look that much better!!

I'm off to do a Video for my Technique site!!  My partner and I do a video each Tuesday, so we called the site Twosday's Techniques (two on Tuesday!)!  We show you the techniques that you really need to see to understand!   I would get so frustrated when reading how to do a technique and it would take me quite a while to figure it out.  So, I figured I would help YOU figure them out by showing you!!  You can check out the site here .

I'll 'see' you next time!!  I would love to hear from you!!

Have a great Stamping Day!
