So I stamped an angel image out last week, and just didn't get around to making a card for her to go on plus I just wasn't really in a stamping mood *GASP*! Lol, so today I thought I would make a card for her to be put onto and I thought the Christmas holly flourish stamp would look really nice as her background. So I used my Versamark ink, then used some fine gold embossing powder, then used my heatgun (which I am told there is a bettter one out there) and then I noticed something I don't think I noticed before. So here is my question to you, how to you prevent your cardstock from curling over when you are embossing??? I was happy with how my card turned out, but was sad that the card had a curl to it and I didn't have the heatgun on the card too long either.
My other question to you all is what else should I add to this card, it looks like it is missing something....any ideas??
Hugs,

Great card! As far as curling? Try keeping your heat tool farthere away from the cardstock and also try heating it from the back of the cardstock too. :0)
Don't add a thing, sweetie, it's perfectly beautiful just as it is. :)
I'd add a ribbon..a little big and sheer across the bottom feet area to give it a little extra touch.
