Damask Wallpaper Background


Here'a another "Use that background" card.  This time it was another gelato background (scribble gelato & blend with baby wipes) in pinks & purples. 

CARD FRONT:
  • Background - I started by trimming the background to the size needed for the front of the card & then heat embossing with an allover design (JustRite background stamp called "Damask Wallpaper").  I embossed it with silver Hero Arts embossing powder.  I matted the whole thing on a piece of silver metallic tag board.
  • Greeting/Focal - Using a bit of the leftover background, I die cut the label with a HOTP die (11 Labels & Trims) & then heat embossed the frame and sentiment with stamps from the matching stamp set (Labels & Trims - also HOTP).  This was once again matted on the silver tag board. I mounted that over a silver velvet ribbon using foam tape.  Small pink gems added to either side of the label completes the card front.
