I have been crowned the Queen of Embossing by a few generous friends... time to polish that crown [lol], and get out the 'big guns' for this one! and I do mean BIG ... yes, this is a full 8.5 x 11 inch piece of cardstock!
Half of which I've used as my card base...
Which means this card is even pretty on the inside!
I've featured some pretty buds from Altenew's Peony Bouquet to add a floral print to my Mega U for this card - buds are about all I see so far this Spring … hope your world is filled with flowers!
Thanks to The Flower Challenge for allowing me to dust off this full-sheet embossing folder from Teresa Collins & Craftwell… it takes a Big Shot Plus to accommodate it!

I'm so honored by this win!
Thank you for the wonderful prize!

WOW, what a stunner, Michele! Beautiful work!
What an absolutely BEAUTIFUL card Michele!! LOVE that the front and back of the card base is embossed with that large folder, and your die cut and stamped "U" is SOOOOOO PRETTY!! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! :0)
WOW! Extraordinary! Beautiful coloring and that embossing...be still my heart.
Oh my gosh this is gorgeous. You will be eating chicken every day.
Just gorgeous, your highness! ;) You've enabled me to get that Mega U but I haven't found time to play with it....yet! I love how you've "shadowed" it with a red and your coloring is amazing!
*...with a red "U"....
You know, I still have that lovely gray piece that you embossed for me on our visit! What a treat to see you using that folder again on this magnificent card. You ARE the embossing queen. I thought it was the moonlight, but I think it's the glow of your polished crown I'm seeing XO
Wow, Michele! This fabulous in every way! What a beautiful embossed piece. The stamping on the U is inspired and just beautiful. The red and green really pop! Wow! Thanks so much for sharing.
You are definitely the Embossing Queen, Michele, and you have a Big Shot Plus to prove it! What an awesome card! I love how the whole card is embossed and that gorgeous, huge U with the pretty red flowers! WOW!
Be still my heart with all that gorgeous embossing, Michele! And yes, you are the 'Queen of Embossing'! I love how you showcased the red bloom and berries on your mega alpha and how you created the red shadow...so pretty! You never cease to amaze me with your talent, my friend!!!
Ohhh wow Michele, this card is amazing. I love that embossing folder you used, just stunning and I wish I had bought that big U - what am I saying just use that Scan n Cut Aileen. The flowers and little buds look totally amazing and I love every inch of this. you have totally rocked the Challenge. Thank you so much for participating at The Flower Challenge Aileen xx
LOVE this! The embossing looks gorgeous but the star is that beautiful 'U' with red berries and bloom!
I didn't know that there is a embossing folder for a full Letter panel! Is there such a thing ?!!! It's really special to use a fully embossed cardbase ! The U with the red picking out from the behind and embellished with pretty buds looks very pretty! So glad you played along at The Flower Challenge :), Michele!
I had to take a second look at Peony Bouquet to see what you did with their buds, Michele. Putting them all over the U made a great design that pops off the elegantly embossed background.
Duh, I forgot to thank you for sharing this lovely with us at The Flower Challenge.
Holy smokes! I wanna marry your brain! This is so fresh and pretty! outstanding in every way.
This is absolutely amazing Michele!!! Love that EF a lot too!!! I think you are going to be the winner!
You definitely need a Big Shot Plus to make this, Michele! What a gorgeous and elegant card! Love the beautiful embossing, the layered big U with a red shadow, and the way you used the pretty buds stamp (I usually neglect)!

HA! U for You...now I get it! I love the white on white embossing and that red layering on the monogram and those little pops of red and that feature bloom...I guess I love it all!
So striking and textured, yet still perfectly CAS!
Big, bold and gorgeous!! This jumped out and grabbed me from the Gallery and I just had to have a look. The embossing folder is beautiful and the die-cut 'U' fits it perfectly. Your Royal Highness, I'm so very happy to shared this amazing card with us at The Flower Challenge!!
