Hi! I was cleaning up my stash and came across a half finished plaid card base. I think I had started it when I got my first set of Altenew inks. Since I wanted to enter the challenge at Pixies's Snippets, this worked perfectly! Here is the card I created.
I just added the stitching lines with an old Itsy Bitsy stamp set. The sentiment is part of the Graphic Greetings series by Taylored Expressions and is called Birthday. I stamped it with Versamark ink and heat embossed with silver embossing powder. I blended some pink colour around the edges to make it stand out. To finish I cut a mat out of some translucent cream paper and popped up the sentiment on foam tape. I also added four half pearls from my stash at the corners.
Love the way this card turned out. Entering it in the following challenges:

The challenge that started it all! I have been following Di's big giveaway posts fairly regularly and wanted to add my snippets card to the gallery.

Nandina, I love your card!!!! What a serendipitous find when you came across your plaid background, since it goes so well with your design!!! Love the birthday sentiment, and how you silver embossed it to make it pop. Great job! Thank you so much for sharing your creativity with us here at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges!!! -Donna
