I used the Stampin Up Medallion background stamp with the embossing ink. I then sprinkled on red embossing powder and used a heat gun to set the powder. Once it cooled off, I added the black gems and stamped a sentiment. You could use this basic card for any occasion, depending on the sentiment you added to it.
This card was inspired by a thank you card submitted to Paper Crafts magazine, by Mary Bieber.
I didn't get my "happy birthday" stamped on very straight, so that is probably why I am always hesitant to stamp on my projects. I guess I just need to practice more. :)
On a side note, I have been working on a new project for The Scrappy Gourmet this past week. It is a summer mini-album using the Pink Paislee 365 degree line. I love the colors of this line and it goes great with all kinds of summer pictures. I was waiting for my most recent order of pictures from Shutterfly to arrive (which arrived yesterday) and I can finish up the last of the project. Can you believe I hadn't ordered pictures since the end of 2009. That was a lot of pictures, including Disney. It was exciting to look through all the pictures from Hope's birthday, Easter, Disney, Graduation and everything in between.
