I present to you N@'s sketch:
Here is how I was inspired... for CTS #141:
Avery Elle's Beautiful Bow; SSS Stitched Squares;
Teresa Collins and Martha Stewart sequins.
you'll see I've used two embossing powders: H.A. white, and Ranger Gold. Here is a little close-up shot ...
My darling teamie, Donna Mikasa, asked me to do a 'tutorial' on this stamping technique, which I've used again today, minus the coloring, let's just say that it is in the works, Donna!
I do hope you'll have something in the works for the CTS gallery this week ... we love when that happens!

I love this bow! After seeing yours in gold, I'm just gonna have to pull mine out and totally CASE your card! This is, pardon the pun, brilliant! Great card. Have a good weekend dear friend. Bev
love this! the colors are beautiful and that stamped bow is awesome!
Oh WOW!! I LOVE that stamp in GOLD. I like your use of that fun technique again. So COOL. And you are right about the sequin placement. I think I should have this laminated too!! I didn't even notice that when I saved the sketch to use later this weekend!!
Happy sigh, Michele ... every. single. detail. is just perfect ... the aqua and gold (swoon!), the bold bow with the subtle embossing alongside, the inset thread nest, those perfectly placed sequins and darling miniature stars ... yep, sighing, my friend! Hugs, Anita :)
FABULOUS - LOVE it :-)
I'm glad you did a close-up because I thought the bow was brown and couldn't see the white stripes. I love everything about this card, Michele.
Oh my gosh!! this is gorgeous Michelle, super elegant, stylish, perfect. Love the gold embossing on the bow and XO XO, every single detail is just so beautiful. I'm going to CASE your card Michelle, I'm pinning it too.

Oh this is just the most beautiful and elegant card! I love it!
This is beautiful! love the layout and the bold bow is just gorgeous!
I am so stinking jealous that you have that fabulous bow set by ae. I am definitely lusting for it. I was too late and it was sold out where ever I looked. Well, its good to have a wishlist right?
Your card is so elegant and lovely. Truly a gem.
Stunning, Michele!!! Cannot get how you did two color embossing, it's impossible, but looks so beautiful!
Wow! Your card is stunning! As is your photography!
Just love the bow stamp!
Loving this card--love how you have done your layers, and I look forward to seeing your embossing tutorial.
What a great design! Love the placement of the bow, off the panel and how you continue the ribbons subtly on the card base. The die cut square beneath adds some great geometry too!
This is so cool, Michele! I have to go check out that tutorial.
Gorgeous! I thought the same thing about sequins placement. 😏
Awwwww this is so pleasing to look at just gorgeous!!!!!!!
Your little gift, sealed with hugs and kisses, is seriously divine! The gold, the loopy thread, the perfectly places embellishments...LOVE!
Hugs~c
