Simple Elegance

Regardless how hard I tried to capture the beauty of this card, the photograph does not do it justice. You cannot see the richness of the Incandescent Nero that I embossed with gold and cut into panels. Each piece was adhered to Gold Pearl Linen cardstock but the lens of the camera could not catch its elegance. The card is exquisite and so simple, stamp, tape and PaperTemptress cardstock.
