So Happy For You...

Hi, chicas! Hope you're all having a great Friday! We're getting ready to head out to the park in a few, but I wanted to pop in and share a card I created using one of my favorite stamps ever... Background Basics: Retro. I love the tile image in the set and have to practically break my fingers to keep from reaching for it each time I make a card... LOL

Have a great one!

Instructions:
  • Create 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" gray card base and stamp with background image.
  • Adhere ribbon strip.
  • Stamp sentiment onto cream cardstock, then attach to card front.
  • Layer two aqua flowers together, add rhinestones to center, then adhere to card front with a pop dot.

Supplies:
Stamps - Background Basics: Retro (PTI), Sentiment by Hero Arts
Paper - Smokey Shadow, Vintage Cream
Ink - Smokey Shadow, Versamark
Miscellaneous - Bazzill Flowers, My Mind's Eye Lush Rhinestone, Kaiser Craft Rhinestones, Hawaiian Shores Grosgrain Ribbon
