This beautiful image from Crafty Secrets is for our Christmas in July challenge this week.  Stampin Sisters in Christ is to use one of our favorite things.  This gorgeous new embossing folder is from Marianne cut and emboss fold  which you can get at Sweet stamps or Joan's Garden stores.  I used some gold mirror card behind the embossed sheet, sanded the embossing to let the lighter color come thru also.  Spellbinders die cut for the image with a gold pen to trim it. Some pretty lace to finish the card.
