Card Details

This card was made to celebrate the queens or princesses in our lives. The card itself starts with a pre-printed card from the Tea Boutique Cards & Envelopes set. Next, layers of patterned paper are added. Next, a circle with a stamped white cat wearing a silver crown. Finally, an inspiring and encouraging sentiment is added.

How do you fill in a line art stamp with heat embossing? How did I make the entire crown silver and not just the outline?
