Polished Roses

I am not a motorcycle enthusiast, so the Ready to Ride Suite on pages 69-70 of the mini catalog didn’t really catch my eye at first. After a bit, though, the Let it Ride Specialty Designer Series Paper did finally catch my eye as I hadn’t even realized roses were mixed in with the masculine designs. And for them to be matte on shiny black is so unique! So glad I bought this DSP! I chose Polished Pink as the highlight color. I embossed the sentiment with Black Embossing Powder on the Polished Pink. I cut a strip 1/2″ x 2 5/8″ and punched the end with the Happy Labels Pick a Punch. I also didn’t want to distract from the paper, so I kept the embellishment super simple – one 2021-2023 In Color Opal Round. To keep any white from seeping in, I opted to use the Black Dimensionals so you don’t see any white from the side angles. Note – because of the smoothness of this DSP, I recommend not using any liquid glue as you will be able to see the lines of it come through. I used Stampin’ Seal + and it stayed smooth. I am loving this card…so striking!
