Just Bamboo

I am SOOO happy with this card!  

It started out as an experiment with gelatos.  I took a piece of white card stock & scribbled on it in various shades of yellow/green.  Then blended with a baby wipe.  

As I looked at the result, I thought of my bamboo embossing folder & just HAD to use it!  After embossing, I used applied green & brown ink lightly in a circular motion to enhance the embossing.  

Then I thought of this panda in my stash.  I had gotten a Spellbinders panda die some time ago & made him up and he was just sitting in my stash! He was perfect!  

I glued the panda to the panel, ran a black ribbon across near the top, matted the whole on a piece of black paper & glued to my card front.  Then I just needed a sentiment.  Another Spellbinder's die (Persian Accents & Motifs set) worked beautifully for that - along with a stamp (Botanical Swirls Labels - JustRite).

Another Spellbinder's die from the set cut the borders for this card.
