Here's a card I started a few weeks ago when I met with the other stampers I wrote about in a previous post. Denise shared this OCL stamped image with me (thanks Denise) and Cherie cut the image out with a cutting stylus! Cherie is the queen of stylus cutting as far as I'm concerned! (thanks Cherie). The background is what I call "mosaic" and it's all done with BG Indian Summer dp that I snipped into random pieces. First I ran a piece of cardstock through the Xyron, then adhered the dp pieces randomly on the sticky side, leaving spaces between all of them for embossing. After all the pieces were placed, I sprinkled gold ep over the piece and heat set it, giving the mosaic look. I matted it with a piece of Vintage Cream cardstock that was embossed using a Texture Fades ef. The ribbon is Vintage Cream and the sentiment is by SU!I hope you're staying warm in this cold snap! It's going to get worse next week, so I think I'll get my errands done tomorrow and start my baking next week when it's too cold to go out! Make it a great day and thanks for stopping by :)

Having seen this background in real life...I know how amazing it is...and what a great card you did with this background and the cute image from Denise! I must tell Cherie she has to see this posting (when she has a computer up and running again...Hopefully, Santa will bring her one for Christmas)

My word, girl.....I haven't gotten past my Christmas cards yet to even think about starting Valentine's! LOL
