I wanted to use some of my papers that haven't seen the light of day in quite a while. I found this very pretty basic gray, baha breeze paper in the designer pack Urban Garden. The paper was so pretty I wanted to highlight it with just minor additions. The two layer label was first stamped in baja breeze then versamark and embossed with clear embossing powder, here's a close-up of the embossing, isn't it pretty? (It's hard to catch the shimmer and get a good photo at the same time, but you can definitely see the embossing.
I thought black velvet ribbon would look nice on this card, but when I checked (was sure I had some) didn't find any, but I did find some nice black felt which I cut into strips with my trusty paper cutter and adhered the strip to the back of the label added a couple of embellies and that was it.
Hope you take the time to leave a comment letting me know your thoughts on my card.
thanks,
Nancy

Gorgeous! Perfect take on the colors, and that sentiment panel is just the prettiest thing, especially embossed. I'll bet that felt looks terrific too....a nice bit of texture on your fabulous card! Thanks for playing with us this week at the Paper Players!
This is gorgeous, Mom! Love the clear embossed label and the dsp is the perfect choice! Way to highlight the pretty paper and beautiful label--who needs more than that?! It's perfect. So glad you joined us at The Paper PLayers! xoxo
Nancy this is so pretty. Glad you posted the second photo because the embossing shows much better. Beautiful! Love the multi colored flowers too.
