Gucci Inspired Birthday

When I saw the gorgeous Gucci outfit at the Runway Inspired Challenge, I thought it would be fun to make a card where text is the focal point. (did you see I got was a Fabulous Fashionista last week).

I tried using red ink, but didn't have a pad that was juicy  enough to get the coverage I needed (note to self … get red ink refill), so I used Hero Arts Raspberry Jam Shadow Ink.  Initially, I lined-up all of my stamps on a big block before stamping, but apparently some of the stamps are slightly different heights (who knew) so that approach failed.  Instead, I created my background one stamp at a time using Sentiments from many Paper Smooches Sets including Salutations, Pretty Phrases, Sentiment Sampler, Happy Birthday and We Adore You.

The theme at the December Paper Smooches Challenge is Flowers, so I stamped flowers from Botanicals 3 to fill in some spots in my design and added paper flowers and pearls to embellish.
