The January Betterpress Society plate set from Spellbinders is called "Uniquely You". I wanted something glam, so pressed the plates using Lisa Horton Crafts metallic ink: Silver Shine, on a Porcelain Cotton Card panel.
The set includes dies for two sizes of flowers, their centers and leaves - so I cut several sets of the flowers out in vellum. Wanting just a hint of colour on the flowers, I tried colouring on the back side of the vellum, but it didn't give the effect I wanted - so I ended up using just plain vellum flowers, and colouring some white pearls with my R81 Copic marker which gave them just a blush of pink.
One of the sentiments from the set was pressed with Betterpress Black ink, and my panel was adhered with 3D foam adhesive over some Spellbinders Treasured Silver brushed cardstock. You have to look closely to see those vellum flowers!
You can get a Betterpress subscription from the Papercrafter's Workshop.
