This 'Opulent Baubles' set was a cover gift with a magazine several years ago and is still one of my favourite emboss, cut and stamp sets for CAS cards.

To make this card I used:
6" x 4" kraft card
Practical Publishing 'Opulent Baubles' embossing folder and stamps
Versafine Onyx Black ink
Cosmic Shimmer Clear Detail embossing powder
Snippets of kraft card, red paper and red textured card
I embossed a piece of kraft card, trimmed around the edge so it was slightly smaller than the card blank and attached it to the front. I used black ink to stamp the joy bauble onto the red paper and embossed it with clear embossing powder. I then used the die from the embossing folder to cut the bauble before inlaying it into the front of the card. I stamped the bow onto a snippet of red textured card using black ink and then embossed it with clear embossing powder. I fussy cut the bow and attached it to the top of the bauble with a small foam pad.
