To begin with, I started by prepping an A2 size card panel with Embossing Powder Tool. Next, I slightly adhered the Seashells Stencil to the card panel and, I inked up the images from the stencil with WOW! Embossing Ink. Once, the card panel was all inked up with the embossing ink, I carefully removed the stencil from the card panel and, I covered the inked images with WOW! Metallic Gold Sparkle. Right after that, I removed the excess from the embossing powder and, I heat set the card panel with the WOW! Heat Embossing Gun Tool. Once, the powder was melted, I trimmed the edges of the card panel a bit smaller than a standard A2 size card base and I set it aside. In the meantime, I ran through the die-cutting machine two of the stax rectangle stitched dies to die-cut a larger frame out of white card stock and a smaller frame out the same color card stock that I used for the card panel. Once, the frames were cut of the card stock, I adhered the backing of the white frame to the card panel with foam mounting tape just to add a bit of dimension to the card panel. As, for the colored card stock frame, I gold heat embossed the image from the Vitamin Sea Stamp Set and, I adhered the backing of the frame to the card panel with double-sided tape as, you can see in the picture above. Lastly, to finish the card off, I adhered the backing of the card panel to an A2 top folding white card base.

For the second example, I repeated the same step for the heat embossing on the card panel. However, I decided to use the Sunscape Stencil instead of the Seashells Stencil. As, for the sentiment, I used the same stamp yet, I changed a few things. First, instead of leaving the outlines from the water drops and some of the sheasell body parts, I decided to use the WOW! Embossing Pen to add embossing ink inside of them so, I could gold heat embossing them as a solid image. Second, right after the heat embossing, I trimmed the edges of the image and, I traced some lines using; a ruler and the heat embossing pen creating that way a frame around the image as you can see in the picture above. Lastly, I adhered the little frame to a piece of white card stock which, I trimmed and adhered to the lower side of the card panel with foam mounting tape. And, to finish the card off, I adhered the card panel to an A2 top folding white card base.

Finally, to finish both cards off, I decided to add some shimmer to the images by using; the Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Pen and by adhering some of the Shimmering Iced Fusion Sequins here and there. To add even more dimension, I decided to add a touch of depth to the card with the Sunscape Stencil by using a darker color marker so, I used R11 and, last but not least, I covered the seashells and the water drops with Glossy Accent for a very shiny shimmery look.
