Merry Monday ~ the "words" have it!

The challenge this week at Merry Monday is to use your word or sentiment as the star of the card.
I die cut the "peace" and then embossed it TWICE with "WOW Pearl Gold Sparkle Embossing Glitter"!!  This baby sparkles!!  I inlaid it into the card.
I used some Recollection Foil paper for my two strips.
The dove is from PTI Peace Be Still stamp set.
Fine linen paper for the face of the card and white for the card.
Thanks for taking a look!

This is my favorite die cut word and I'm wondering how you managed to emboss it after it was cut? The gold embossing and foil make this so elegant and the sweet dove accents the word perfectly! Thanks, Colleen, for sharing with us at Merry Monday!
