Moonlit Flora Embossed Amazing Friend Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features the nighttime vibes of the beautiful Moonlit Flora Suite Collection.  With the deep blue and black backgrounds, gorgeous ferns and greenery along with moths and flowers glowing in the moonlight, this is a stunning collection.  The aptly named new Golden Glow In-Color is the perfect color for the flowers and the sentiment amidst all the rich nighttime hues.

Techniques include embossing the DSP print for added visual depth, two-step die cutting and shading with Blender Pens.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

Adding subtle shading to the moths on this card is easy with a Blender Pen.  Stamp the image, then use the Blender Pen to brush over the area you wish to shade slightly.  The Blender Pen will pull some of the ink from the stamped area so you can add slight shading in a small area adjacent.  

I used this technique to lightly color in the body of the moth and the little dotted area along the bottom of the upper wings.
