Today I've combined it with my favourite colours of cream, terracotta and light olive to give a card with an autumnal feel. I cut it from the terracotta card fist, then embossed the remaining card with a Crafters Companion embossing folder and sanded the surface lightly. before matting onto the olive card, I cut the olive Chloe stem, lining it up carefully to make sure the gap wouldn't show around the edge or within the die cut negative. The cream Chloe stem is cut from the remainder of the sheet of cream card I used to make the card blank. The sentiment is a Tattered Lace die and I was lucky enough to find two terracotta coloured heart gems in my stash.

Well that's all jumbled....but I think you get the gist. :)
A lovely card Jane. he colours really are a beautiful combination and I really like the way you've matched the embossing folder with the die. I don't use that pretty die nearly enough. Barbxx

I've got this die and embossing folder and never thought to combine them! I love what you have done, especially cutting out from the embossing background.
Very lovely and I really like how you did the background...TFS it with Craft Rocket Challenge!
This is gorgeous. You really made a wonderful use of the dies and love the colors.
Great card! Love the colors and embossing! Thanks for joining us at Crafty Gals Corner!
Another beautiful card using this die. I love that you have made so many amazing cards with the die, rather than one or two then onto the next. Lots of incentive to use mine.
Great card, Jane - love your colour combination.
Thanks for joining us at Cardz 4 Galz.
