CASology # 54 ~ GOLD

         This week the CASology cue word is GOLD.  So I took a die from Memory box and die cut it three times and adhered each one to itself.  Then I rubbed versamark over it and embossed with gold embossing powder...I actually repeated that process a couple of times to give it a nice thick coating of gold.  Since I wanted this to be a sympathy card, I kept it really clean and simple...I embossed a strip with a Cuttlebug dot folder and adhered it to the face of the card, then added the "fresh daisies" die to it.  I embossed the sentiment with gold also...it is a Hero Arts sentiment.  You can access the CASology blog HERE.
