Cross Messages Die

I have to say, I sure had fun making this card.  This uses some fun techniques that I haven't used in forever.  I really love the look of an easel card, so I decided to combine that with these new sets and die from Clear Dollar Stamps.  The die is called Cross Messages Die, and the sets that coordinate are Cross Messages and Cross Messages Additions.  I used the die to cut out the cross background.  Using Wild Ginger ink and clear embossing powder, I reverse embossed the cross stamp onto the die cut cross.

I made this for the anything goes challenge over at Craft Your Passion.
Stamps:  Cross Messages, Cross Messages Additions
Ink:  Wild Ginger (CDS), SU Elegant Eggplant, SU Not Quite Navy, Hot Cocoa (CDS)
Paper:  buttercream (TE), Crate Paper Restoration
Accessories:  Cross Messages Die, clear embossing powder, prima flowers, green ribbon, sponge
