Stampin’ Up! has some “remarkable” Designer Series Paper.  It comes in all colors and so many different designs.  Some of them are called Specialty Papers because they have special sheets in the pack that are sometimes heavier, made of something different (like acetate) or are gold, silver or copper embossed.  These paper are just gorgeous and some you can’t really appreciate until you see them in person.

I made this card using some of this Designer Series Specialty Paper.  The piece I used comes in the pack called Eastern Palace.  It is Dapper Denim and the lines are gold.  It is just beautiful.  Of course, I had to pair this amazing paper with my latest obsession ~ the stamp set called Remarkable You.

It is a very simple card to make.  First I stamped the flower in Versamark Ink. Then I sprinkled Gold Embossing Powder over it and heat set it with my Stampin’ Up! Heat Tool.  This Heat Tool is different than the others on the market because it has two speeds.  One is used for embossing and the other can be used to dry ink or water quickly.  Lastly, I stamped the sentiment in Basic Black Archival Ink.  The whole process only took a few minutes.

So, remember even if you are in a hurry you can still make someone a card that they will enjoy getting.  No one needs to know it only took you a few minutes!
