I enjoyed making this weeks Monochromatic card using the Layers of Beauty stamps, dies, and masks. You can find the post on Instagram HERE . Be sure to click through to see all of the projects submitted this week.

To create the embossed background layer, I used the Damask Embossing Folder (#165214) that will be available through the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog starting May 6th.
