CASE Study #175

Isn't this a beautiful card?

This is by Donna Mikasa and is the muse for this week's CASE Study. 

I loved the shimmery gold and the black off set card base.


I used a new stamp set from The Alley Way Stamps that I won from Tracy over at Tracy Mae Designs. I cut white cardstock with the Tipped Tops from PIT, stamped the border in VersaMark, embossed with gold and inked with three Distress Inks.  "birthday " was cut three times from a PIT die and glued together. The small "wishes" is part of a stamp from. . . darn, I can't remember - and I know I'll want it again.

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope the weather isn't keeping you in. But if it is, I hope you get some crafting time. (wink)

Isn't Donna such a fabulous Muse? Love your card, the gold diamond pattern is fantastic! BTW you did not use too many 'rights', thank you for all your sweetness!

I love this, Bobby! The gold embossing is gorgeous and the subtle shades add just the right touch. And the black sets it off beautifully!

Bobby--this is fabulous. I think that you and I had exactly the same idea, just slightly different stamps. I even die cut my letters three times and stacked them!
