My card also fits the Dirty Dozen challenge this month on Splitcoaststampers which is a black tie party. I wanted it to be elegant and I hope I achieved that.
I used a Heartfelt Creations precut stamp that is cut with the Spellbinders Peony nestabilitie. I stamped three times on black cardstock with VersaMark, then embossed with white embossing powder. Cut the flower with the die cut and popped up. Then, I added the little, red gemstone.
I am entering Amber's Crafts and Stuff - challenge #2-Use Die Cuts

You definitely achieved the black tie party look Benzi! This is elegant, classy and stunning! A WOW card ... love it!!!
Loved it on SCS and loving it all over again here! Stunning card :)
Gorgeous flower and such an elegant card! It's dreary here too and cold! It didn't get out of the 30's yesterday and 32° this morning! I think the seasons have gotten mixed up!
This is so striking with all the dramatic black, and that tiny pop of red color! It's beautifully detailed and designed - a fabulous black-tie card!
Benzi this is do beautiful and elegant!! I have that heartfelt stamp and have never used it! You have inspired me. :) Have a great week.
Beautiful. The black and white color scheme is to die for!

Very pretty. This is my first time visiting your blog. I was surprised to read that you have only been making cards for two years. Your cards look like you've been making cards much longer. Your cards are so nicely done.
