Finding Joy

by 19 comments

I’m sharing a simple card with you today – no design paper – imagine that.   Using a Flourishes background called Harlequin and Accessories; and the sentiment  from Cherries and Peaches, I used tones of burgundy with some embellishment throughout.  I stamped the background with Versamark and embossed with clear embossing powder and used jewels at each of the intersections on the background.  Then cut/emboss the Spellbinders 12" Grand Heirloom Scroll Border and cut it down from the center so that if fit my card.  I used a Versamark Pen to color the scrolls and embossed with clear embossing powder. 

 

My ribbon is threaded through the hole in the Spellbinders Border.  I finished off by mounting the sentiment on Spellbinders Classic Ovals Small and Large and adding the small accent piece from the Fleur de Lis Pendant. 

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Flourishes – Harlequin and Accessories, Cherries and Peaches
Paper:  Bazzill
Ink:  Versamark and Clear Embossing Powder
Accessories:  Spellbinders Grand 12" Heirloom Scroll Border, Spellbinders Classic Ovals, Large, Spellbinders Classic Ovals Small, Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Pendant Accent Piece, Ribbon, Bling

I hope your weekend is glorious – mine is a busy one :-)  Be back soon!

    Becca,
    The card is sooo pretty. I love how you used the
    bling with the backround stamp.
    And of course the ribbon goes without saying.
