Happy Monday!! I know, typically Mondays are not happy days, but today definitely is! Today the Stamper's Dream girls are putting on a blog hop featuring all the new stamps from JustRite!
If you are following the hop order (and you will definitely want to because these girls are AMAZING), then you should have arrived from Denise's blog. If you've just wandered by to see what I've been up to and would like to check out what the other girls have created, then head on over to Cindy's blog (the first stop on the hop)!
For my card, I combined the new Baroque Frames Nested Borders & Centers set (don't you just love the new large rectangle border shape!!) with the new All Occasion Centers & Verse set! I just LOVE the larger fonts!! They can be combined with the borders sets or they would also be perfect by themselves!! So fun!!
I started with some patterned paper from Webster's Pages (Lullaby Lane & Life's Portrait 6 x 6 Collection). I chose three different patterns to mix & match to somewhat mimic the collage look of the main background layer. For my main image, I embossed one of the large rectangle borders (from the Baroque Frames set) using Black Detail embossing powder. The Happy Birthday sentiment (from the All Occasion Centers & Verse) is also embossed (using Aquatic Splash Dew Drop and Clear Detail embossing powder).
For embellishments, I added a punched border, some matching trim (also from Webster's Pages), a shabby ribbon rose, ribbon, Dew Drops, black pearls, & some rhinestones.
Ready to see what Michelle has created? She's the next stop on the hop! :-)
