My base is Basic Black card stock. I cut a piece of Whisper White card stock. I took the stamp from Always Stamp Set; inked in Basic Black and stamped around th edges of the Whisper White card stock. I then took the 2-way Glue Pen and added Dazzling Diamonds to the stamped image. I sponged the edges with Shimmer Paint Platinum. I cut a piece of Brushed Silver card stock. I ran it through the Big Shot with the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder. I cut a piece of Presto Patterns DSP; inked it with the Brayer and Basic Black ink. I will miss this DSP too I just loved it!!! I then wrapped a piece of 5/8 Organza Whisper White ribbon around the center of the DSP.

I cut a piece of Basic Black, Brushed Silver and Whisper White card stock. I took the stamp from Always Stamp Set; inked in Basic Black and stamped onto the Whisper White card stock. I added Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to the bird and some Jewels Basic Rhinestones. I sponged the edges with Shimmer Paint Platinum. I snailed all 3 pieces together and popped it up with Stampin' Dimensionals. I attached a bow made from the 5/8 Whisper White Organza Ribbon. I took the stamp again from Always Stamp Set; inked in Basic Black and stamped onto a piece of Whisper White card stock. I rounded the corners with the 3/16th Corner Small Punch, sponged the edges with  Shimmer Paint Platinum. I then added some Jewels Basic Rhinestones under the word.

My base is Wild Wasabi card stock. I cut a piece of Melon Mambo card stock; ran it through the Big Shot with the Flower Garden Embossing Folder. I cut a piece of Tangerine Tango card stock and a piece of Beyond the Garden DSP. I cut a piece of Whisper White card stock. I took the stamp from Fabulous Florets Stamp Set; inked in Wild Wasabi and stamped onto the Whisper White card stock. I took the stamp from Fabulous Florets Stamp Set; inked in VersaMark and stamped onto a piece of Whisper White card stock. Holding my piece of paper over the Powder Pal Tray I poured Tangerine Tango Embossing Powder over my stamped image. I tapped off the excess and heat set it using the Heat Tool. I cut my image out, I placed a Stampin' Dimensional on the back and attached to the card.

I punched out a piece of Melon Mambo card stock with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch and snailed across the bottom. I took a piece of 1/4 Whisper White grosgrain ribbon, colored it with a sponge dauber and Wild Wasabi ink. I wrapped around the bottom. I then took the stamp from Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set; inked in Melon Mambo and stamped onto a piece of Whisper White card stock. I punched it out with the Curly Label Punch only using half of the punch. I then slid it in under the ribbon. To finish off the front I added Jewels Basic Rhinestones.
