Blog Star Suzanne Czosek tried out some of our NEW Frantage Products and made this incredibly elegant and timeless card. I can see this as inspiration for Wedding Invitations.
Suzanne explains, “I was so excited to receive some of the NEW Aged Silver Embossing Enamel and couldn’t wait to see the effect of the enamel. The peony embossed looks like a fine cloisonné pattern.”
We agree Suzanne. We can’t get enough of the look we get when using our New Aged Embossing Enamels.
