Yes, I like the card better with the bow dyed gold to match the gold embossing on the antlers and the Smooch Spritz on the card front. Now it all goes together!
I started the card by embossing a piece of Baja Breeze cardstock with the Northern Flurry embossing folder. I then added Gold Glow Smooch Spritz to the front of the card. I colored over Dasher's body with a Chocolate Chip Marker and went over the antlers with the Versa Mark marker and stamped this onto a piece of Whispe White cardstock. I heat embossed the antlers with gold embossing powder. This stamped image was layered onto a piece of Brushed Gold cardstock. I first tied a piece of Whisper White Organza Ribbon onto the card, but later decided to dye it gold using my retired Gold Metallic ink. To do this, I too a small piece of a Stamping Sponge and layed the ribbon on top of the ink pad. I held the ribbon down with the sponge and held the end of the ribbon in my fingers and ran the ribbon over the stamp pad a few times until I got the coverage I wanted. I let it dry for a few minutes and then tied it onto my card. I like this look better, and dying ribbon is easy using this technique.
